We\u2019re proud to join together again in 2021 with a new event format and demonstrate the growing philanthropic impact this event has,\u201d said Floyd Harmon, executive director, Asante Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2021 main events schedule<br>OWE meticulously outlined four phased event plans to accommodate varying state and county guidelines.&nbsp;In-person events will follow all current mandates and protocol requirements in August. The format is subject to change based on the guidelines at the time of the event.&nbsp;Below is the anticipated schedule:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Wednesday, Aug. 25 and Thursday, Aug. 26<\/strong> \u2013 <strong>Founders\u2019 Barrel Auction<\/strong>:&nbsp;Attendees and sponsors can bid on a chance to win exclusive wine curated specifically for OWE from all corners of the state. A Collectors\u2019 Tasting will take place on Wednesday for previous bidders, sponsors and select Asante Foundation donors. Multiple tasting windows will take place on Thursday. All bidding is online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Thursday, Aug. 26<\/strong> \u2013 <strong>Virtual Medal Celebration<\/strong>: This event will be hosted via a livestream showing for anyone to tune in virtually. Viewers will have a front row seat as the 2021 Oregon Wine Competition results are announced. Sponsors will receive exclusive \u201cMedal Celebration in a box\u201d packages to enjoy the award-winning wine and culinary bites. The general public will also have an option to purchase these while supplies last.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Friday, Aug. 27 \u2013 Grand Tasting<\/strong>:&nbsp;Taste Oregon\u2019s award-winning wine and culinary excellence. This includes multiple windows for smaller groups of attendees to enjoy the tastings in compliance with capacity and safety regulations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Saturday, Aug. 28 \u2013 Miracle Auction &amp; Salmon Bake:&nbsp;During an opulent salmon dinner, the program will showcase the story of a local patient&nbsp;and the vast impact of community support through OWE. The master of ceremonies and auctioneer will take the audience on an engaging ride through a live auction with coveted auction items and cuing a Paddle Raise. The program will also be available online via livestream. Mobile bidding will be open all week for Silent Auction items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>August \u2013 Ultimate Vintner Dinners<\/strong>:&nbsp;These small, intimate gatherings will take place at wineries and culinary partner locations throughout August for top-tier sponsors.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another new enhancement to OWE is its elevated brand presence. Designed in partnership with Portland-based agency, Sasquatch, the new visual identity and website present the event as approachable, community-oriented and sincere, keeping Oregon wine and OWE\u2019s commitment to philanthropy at the heart of the brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSince 2015, OWE has grown exponentially, garnering statewide and national attention. The new brand represents the natural evolution of that transformation and our renewed focus. We truly believe that this signature event celebrates the very best of Oregon\u2014the very best wine, food, attendees, sponsors, cause, and the beauty and wonder of Oregon,\u201d said Harmon.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>OWE will take place on the Bigham Knoll campus in Jacksonville, Oregon.
