Social Tonight
ByThe New York Young Republican Club holds a monthly social, and tonight’d will be a great time!
Come join us TONITE, Wednesday, June 4, 2008, from 7:00pm – 10:00pm at Bowery Wine Company, 13 East 1st Street, netween Bowery and 2nd Avenue.
***Bruce Willis is not being welcomed warmly by the lovely liberals of the Lower East Side now that he’s opened the Bowery Wine Company.
In fact, John Penley, a liberal activist, told Page Six in the NY Post that “We want to show our opposition to right-wing Republicans opening yuppie wine bars in our neighborhood.”
Needless to say, we’re going to fill his neighborhood whether he likes it or not. Come join us for a great evening.
RSVP to events@nyyrc.com. Media contact pr@nyyrc.com.

You guys made the big time…posted on curbed 6/9/08:
Last week, a couple of notable (maybe?) East Villagers created a bit of a stir when they announced they were protesting Bruce Willis’s Bowery Wine Co., because the newish spot had recently hosted a New York Young Republicans Club gathering. The protest would be againt “right-wing Republicans opening yuppie wine bars in our neighborhood,” they said. We assumed the story would just go away and the protest would never happen (inspiration often yields to procrastination when you get below 14th Street), but sure enough, a Curbed tipster sent in this photo of a flyer posted in the ‘hood. Now, it’s not only Bruce Willis and Republicans in the crosshairs, but also real estate developers and landlords in general. Will anyone actually show to this thing? Given that it’s a Friday night at 8pm, all of the Bowery will have probably decamped to their Hamptons homes already.
