Ribbon Cutting Celebration: Vino Del Mundo

 Ribbon Cutting Celebration – Vino Del Mundo

 Friday, January 16th at 11:00 AM
 56 South Main Street, Fairfield

Join the Fairfield Area Chamber of Commerce and our Chamber Ambassadors as we celebrate the ribbon cutting for Vino Del Mundo, one of our newest Chamber members and a wonderful new addition to Fairfield’s downtown square.

Vino Del Mundo brings global wines with a local touch to Fairfield. What began as owner Ken Malloy's curiosity for wine at age 18—working in a boutique wine shop in New York—has grown into a passion project dedicated to sharing thoughtfully curated bottles from around the world. Their new space offers a welcoming atmosphere where quality, story, and craftsmanship come together.

 Ribbon cutting will take place promptly at 11:00 AM.
We invite Chamber members and the community to join us in welcoming Vino Del Mundo and celebrating their opening on the square.

Unstopped: Works for Organ by Women Composers ft. Dr Karen Black

Unstopped: Works for Organ by Women Composers celebrates the depth, brilliance, and expressive power of organ music written by women across centuries and styles. This thoughtfully curated program highlights voices that have too often been overlooked, featuring works that range from intimate and meditative to bold, virtuosic, and triumphant. From historic figures to living composers, the evening explores how women have shaped—and continue to shape—the organ’s repertoire through innovation, lyricism, and spiritual depth.

The performance will be presented by Dr. Karen E. Black, Rudi Inselmann Endowed Professor of Organ at Wartburg College in Waverly, Iowa. An accomplished organist, conductor, and educator, Dr. Black teaches organ, church music, music theory, and aural skills, serves as organist for weekday chapel and worship services, and conducts both the Kantorei choral ensemble and Handbell Choir. She holds degrees from St. Olaf College and Indiana University, where she earned her Doctor of Music in organ performance and literature.

Dr. Black is an active recitalist and clinician who has performed throughout the United States and internationally, including recitals in Germany at the Castle Church in Wittenberg and St. George’s Church in Eisenach. She has been featured on the nationally broadcast Pipedreams program and is a published composer and arranger with Augsburg Fortress and Morningstar Music. Her 2021 album Ein feste Burg celebrates the Dobson organ at Wartburg College, and she currently serves as President of the Association of Lutheran Church Musicians.

The Barhydt Organ Spotlight Series features master organists and pianists that show our beautiful Barhydt Organ and Steinway grand piano at their finest. Admission to all performances is free! Voluntary donations will be accepted at the door ($10 suggested)
