Dubost Winery, Studios on the Park, and Park Cinemas Team up to Raise Funds for Kids Art Smart
Dubost Winery, together with Park Cinemas and Studios on the Park, is hosting a private reception and early movie premiere of Destination Wedding on Thursday, Sept. 6. Net proceeds will support Studios on the Park’s Kids Art Smart, a program that provides free hands-on art instruction to all elementary students in North County.
In August of 2017, Dubost Winery was the site of movie magic as the Dubost Family hosted the production of Destination Wedding, a romantic comedy starring Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder.
Filmed during one of the hottest weeks of summer, the Dubost family, friends, local crew, and extras got an up-close look at what goes into the making of a major motion picture with “A-list” stars. Most of the scenes were shot at Dubost Winery, vineyard, and surrounding countryside.
“I was struck by how similar movie making and winemaking are,” said Kate Dubost, co-owner of Dubost Winery with her husband Curt. “You take a seat in a theater and watch the movie magic unfold just as you pour a glass of wine and taste the magic – not aware of the blood, sweat, and tears that went into creating that special moment.”
Come on out to Park Cinemas and join local friends and neighbors to view Destination Wedding on Sept. 6 – one day before the rest of the country! Meet some of our wonderful community members who participated in the production, and help support art for local schoolchildren.
