Propose your ThursdayFor Mid-Atlantic distilleries, wineries, beverage brands and the experts behind them.

A club built around connection
Meet the people.
Share what you know.
Black Iris brings together art, music, food and community in Richmond’s Arts District. Our members come here to connect, explore new interests and enjoy experiences with the people who make them possible.
Member Thursdays invite producers, brand representatives, winemakers and whiskey and wine educators to spend an evening with that community. Share the craft behind your work, answer questions and make personal connections in a relaxed club setting.
Tell your story
Introduce your brand, its people and the choices that make your work distinctive.
Bring an experience
Propose a guided tasting, a winemaker conversation, a bourbon or whiskey discussion, or an educational demonstration.
Make it personal
Leave time for member questions and conversation. You can also propose a member offer for our team to review.
An upstairs evening
A place for your brand.
Room for the gallery to thrive.
These gatherings are planned for our second-floor member spaces, including the lounge pictured above. The main gallery remains available for separately scheduled events.
We’ll coordinate your setup, guest flow, service and timing with the rest of the club. Tell us your ideal format and who would join us from your team; we’ll work through the details together.
You bring your brand and expertise; Black Iris will invite our members, promote the evening and coordinate member attendance. We’ll agree room arrangements and service together. Dates are confirmed by the Black Iris team.
