The Collectors Table
Art, Wine, and Private Chef Tasting Experience
Welcome to The Collector’s Table, a gathering for those who find beauty in detail and meaning in every pour, plate, and art piece. Experience an afternoon where global wines, and contemporary art intertwine in celebration of taste, culture, and connection.
Hosted by Kibri and Fly Wines, this exclusive, invitation-only event opens the doors of KIBRI @ PDR-1 Gallery, San Francisco’s newest private creative space. Collectors are invited to indulge in an afternoon of exceptional wines, refined dining, and contemporary artworks by artists of the African Diaspora, presented in an atmosphere of artful connection and cultural exchange.

Guests will enjoy a six-course menu, artfully paired with boutique wines from Fly Wines’ global portfolio of small, independent, and family-owned producers. Each pairing is designed to engage the senses and elevate conversation.
