In a collaboration that began in January, SAS now offers Taste and Talk, a vibrant women’s salon with a purpose, hosted in an intimate home in Chappaqua. Through this forum, students gather monthly to hear from thought leaders on engaging and provocative topics that spark meaningful conversations. Sommelier Bobby Chipman from Dodds Wine and Spirits in Millwood leads participants through a curated selection of wines to complement the unforgettable evening of discussion, connection, and learning.

Just added to the catalog is the March installment in the series, scheduled for this coming Thursday, March 6, 2025. Taste and Talk: Volunteering to Make A Difference (Course 13150) features Jessica Reinmann of 914Cares and Katie Pfeifer of Volunteer NY. Students will be notified of the location after registration.
