COMMUNITY AFFAIRS: "Boards and Bordeaux" Bring Members Together at the AICP Women's Forum

The AICP West Chapter hosted an AICP Women’s Forum on July 15th in Los Angeles. Hosted at Cosmo Street, the event - “Boards and Bordeaux” - featured wine-tasting and a charcuterie board-making lesson for over 100 attendees. AICP Women’s Forum events are held nationally, and focus on creating connections and community for members. 

AICP West Board members LaRue Anderson (Apache); Yvette Cobarrubias (Cosmo Street);  Suzanne Hargrove  (PRETTYBIRD); and Jessie Nagel (Hype) conceived and planned the event, which was an evening of creativity, connection, and conversation for AICP Members. 

The event kicked off  with a wine-tasting,  presented by female winemaker Kara Groom of ra ra wines followed by charcuterie-making class taught by Yvette Cobarrubias. Attendees were able to create beautiful, share-worthy charcuterie boards and explore perfect wine pairings while engaging with industry peers.   

Versatile Studios was the evening sponsor, and raffle prizes were donated by Cast & Crew, Cosmo Street, Universal Studios and Wrapbook.
