City Winery

City Winery is a winery, restaurant, music venue and private event location in Hudson Square, New York City.[1] Other locations include Atlanta, Chicago[2], Nashville, Boston, Washington D.C., and Philadelphia. Satellite locations are sited in Chicago and New York City. A location in Montgomery, New York, at former textile mill, the first one outside a major city, was also planned for 2018.[3]

Founded in 2008 by CEO Michael Dorf, the venue has hosted gigs by Graham Nash,[4] Norah Jones,[5] Lee Ann Womack[6] and Graham Parker.[7] It runs a set of free early evening weekday gigs for local musicians.[8] Each City Winery location is a fully functioning urban winery, importing grapes from all over the world to create unique locally made wines.

Shlomo Lipetz, also a member of Team Israel at the World Baseball Classic in March 2017, serves as the vice president of programming, and books music for their five locations.[9][10] Lipetz began working at City Winery in 2008 with its founding.[11]
