On Friday, September 26th at 7:30pm, ROAM Bistro Italiano will host Art & Aperitivo—an intimate evening where art, wine, and philanthropy come together. Guests will discover STORIES, an exhibition by Lebanese painter Darine Semaan, while enjoying a selection of natural wines, highlighted by Sept Winery’s acclaimed organic Cabernet Franc.
Darine Semaan, known for transforming people, music, and everyday moments into vivid visual narratives, will present her latest works in an atmosphere designed to spark creativity, conversation, and connection.
In keeping with ROAM’s commitment to the community, part of the evening’s proceeds will go to TAMANNA, a Lebanese NGO dedicated to fulfilling the wishes of children with cancer.
Alessandro Dubaldo, principal owner of ROAM, shared:
“This evening will prove that food, art, and culture can come together to create an impactful experience, not only for those attending, but also for the wider community through supporting children.”
Darine Semaan added her perspective: “Art is a language of hope and connection. I’m grateful that my work can serve as a bridge, not only to inspire, but also to help bring joy to children through TAMANNA.”
TAMANNA representatives expressed their gratitude and said: “We thank the artist for her initiative and generosity, and we call on our network to join this activation. Together, we can make a difference in realizing the dreams of children battling cancer.”
With art, wine, and Italian hospitality at its heart, Art & Aperitivo promises to be a night where creativity, flavor, and generosity flow together.
