Taste of the Tri-Town will be held on September 7 at the Mattapoisett YMCA from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.

The evening will feature wine tasting and samplings of the best of Tri-Town restaurants with Spirits of Marion providing the latest wine, liquor and beer offerings.

Past grants include the Monarch Butterfly Garden Habitat at the Center School, Steps to Respect Anti-Bullying at Old Hammondtown School and Time Travel through Genealogy at Rochester Memorial School.

Tickets for the event are $30 and are available through any member of the Old Rochester Tri-Town Education Foundation or at the Marion General Store, Lloyds Market in Rochester or Rogers Gallery in Mattapoisett. Tickets can also be purchased by calling Deb Martin at 508-287-1946
