Sample a variety of wine and craft beer selections and enjoy a bourbon tasting at the University of Alabama at Birmingham’s 14th annual Uncork Education on Sunday, Nov. 6.
Uncork Education is presented by the UAB National Alumni Society. Since its debut, Uncork Education has raised more than $647,000 for scholarships thanks to the generosity of sponsors and guests.
For the first time, flights of bourbon will be available in Alumni Hall for $25. Take a tour of Kentucky’s Bourbon Trail right here in Birmingham and taste and compare different bourbons. The event will also feature auctions, food and entertainment.
Uncork Education will be held at the UAB Alumni House from 5:30-8 p.m. Registration and a silent auction will begin at 5:30 p.m., followed by a live auction from 6:45-7:30 p.m.
Tickets for this signature event are $60 and can be purchased online to support student scholarships. Each ticket includes the wine and beer tasting, entertainment, heavy hors d’oeuvres, and dessert.
Sponsors include Medical Properties Trust, UAB Administration, Collat School of Business, Marnix E. Heersink School of Medicine, College of Arts and Sciences, School of Health Professions, and the Honors College.
