🎨 Artistic Journey 🍽️ Delightful Cuisine 🏛️ Rich History 🤝 Family Connection

Join us in special celebration of the 100th Anniversary of the Corban family Homestead for the reveal of the next iteration of our foyer Heritage Wall, while A.A.Corban’s Great-granddaughter Sharon Alexander shares anecdotes from her family’s original home.

We’ll take a tour of the group exhibition Al Balad Alam : The land we rest upon, led by the curators and one of the exhibiting artists Nicola Fraser, another Corban family descendant whose connection to her maternal ancestors is intimately referenced through her craft of crochet.

After a taste of some traditional Lebanese treats, we’ll then continue on a Heritage Tour of the Estate to learn some historic facts about the old Corbans Winery buildings and some of the fascinating stories within its walls.
