[Michlib-l] Serving wine in the library

[Michael Mccaffery]

Hello

When I called the liquor commission asking about this- basically any event
where alcohol is served in the service of raising money- requires a permit.
That includes fundraising I believe.

I called LARA to verify what is necessary. If it is done purely in the
service of education, not fundraising and is of a small quantity no permit
needed. (IE a program on brewing or about wine)

I would call them and find out just to be sure:
