The Charlottesville 29

Here is your chance to experience The Alley Light like you never have experienced it before, while helping to feed the area’s hungry. It’s The Charlottesville 29 Restaurant Auctions, presented by McGuireWoods. Along with all of the other restaurants in The Charlottesville 29, The Alley Light has created a signature experience available to whoever pledges the highest donation to The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank. Thanks to the generosity of The Alley Light, the winning bid goes directly to the food bank, and each dollar donated is enough to provide four meals to the area’s hungry. So, a winning bid of, say, $2,000 would mean not just a wonderful meal for the winner and their guests, but also 8,000 more meals for the area’s hungry.

The Alley Light signature experience for The Charlottesville 29 Restaurant Auctions:

One Night Only Tasting Menu With Wine and Cocktail Pairings

In 2015, The Alley Light was one of 25 semi-finalists for the James Beard Award for Best New Restaurant in the country. The auction winner and seven guests will  enjoy the restaurant in a way no one ever has enjoyed it before. The eight guests will have a reserved lounge area to themselves, where they will be treated to a seemingly endless array of courses of the chef’s favorite dishes, paired with wines and cocktails. The wines will be personally selected by owner Will Richey, founder of The Wine Guild and one of the top oenophiles in town, while the cocktails will be the work of top mixologist and cocktail book author Micah LeMon.

Note: the auction winner will schedule the dinner with The Alley Light on a mutually convenient day and time.

Bidding for The Alley Light auction is closed.

Winning Bid: $3,000
