Welcome to the Region’s Largest Wine & Food Tasting Event
Welcome to the return of a delicious tradition — the NEPM Wine & Food Lovers’ Weekend. For over three decades, supporters have put their palates to work to help raise funds for the public media programs and services they trust and love. So, sip and savor, and remember that this enjoyable evening really makes a difference in our community. As Julia Child famously said, “Bon appetit!”
Matt Abramowitz, NEPM President Marie Waechter, Director of Audience Engagement and Events
MGM Springfield was excited to host the NEPM Wine & Food Lovers’ Weekend in 2020 and its return this year. As the great Julia Child said, “As you get older, you shouldn’t waste time drinking bad wine,” and we here at MGM Springfield couldn’t agree more!
Chris Smigel, MGM Springfield Executive Director of Hospitality
Thank you to all of the sponsors and supporting partners who made this event possible.

SUPPORTING PARTNERS
Meet our Special Guests
Amy Traverso, the senior food editor at Yankee magazine and co-host of the television series “Weekends with Yankee,” as well as the podcast “Talking with My Mouth Full.” Amy will share some of her Yankee adventures and Julia Child lore and demonstrate a recipe with the students of Holyoke Community College’s Culinary Arts Program. Tonight at Table 72.
David Leite, the publisher of the website Leite’s Culinaria, founded in 1999, which was the first James Beard award winning website. His first book, “The New Portuguese Table: Exciting Flavors from Europe’s Western Coast,” won the 2010 IACP First Book/Julia Child Award. In 2022, David teamed up with new co-host Amy Traverso for his popular podcast, “Talking with My Mouth Full.” David will be demonstrating a recipe tonight with Amy Traverso at Table 72.
Sara Moulton, the co-founder of the New York Women’s Culinary Alliance, executive chef of Gourmet magazine, food editor of “Good Morning America,” and the host of several well-loved shows on the Food Network during that channel’s first decade. A protégée of Julia Child, Sara is the author of several cookbooks including her latest, “Sara Moulton’s Home Cooking 101: How To Make Everything Taste Better.” The 11th season of her popular public television show, “Sara’s Weeknight Meals,” was seen on NEPM TV in the fall of 2022. Meet and Greet with Sara at the Create/APT Table 68.
Christine Tobin, one of the most soughtafter food stylists in the business, having worked on more than 20 film productions including “Julia” on HBO Max,” “Little Women,” “American Hustle,” and “Olive Kitteridge,” Christine brings a unique arts and culinary background to her craft.
FOOD STYLING FOR “JULIA”

We’ll hear from guest speakers Laurie Donnelly, executive producer of lifestyle programming at GBH, PBS chef Sara Moulton, and Maria Loi, host of “The Life of Loi,” which debuted on NEPM TV in 2022.
