The recent “Red and White Wine Night” at Cuchara Restaurant sold out with 85 alumni, faculty and friends enjoying the food and learning about wine pairings. View highlights posted to NSM’s Flickr account or in Scenes Around NSM.

A donor appreciation event was held in January with guests attending a sneak preview of a “Downton Abbey” episode and participating in the “Manor of Speaking” post-show taping. See the event photos on Flickr.
