ALTON – The Junior League of Greater Alton is excited to announce the date of its annual wine, beer and spirits tasting event, “Uncorked & Uncapped,” to run from 6-9 p.m. Saturday, March 12 at the Jacoby Arts Center in Alton.

It is a wonderful evening, and the proceeds of the event will help fund Junior League’s mission to support women and children in the River Bend area.”
