These were a few of the over forty galleries pairing food and art for this year’s Edible Art Tour. If you missed it this year, plan to attend next year’s event. It’s always the last weekend in February. Not only is it fun, it benefits art education programs in Santa Fe Schools.
Authors’ note: As a former hotel concierges and owners of a travel concierge and trip-planning business in Santa Fe, we have been guests of ARTFeast for the Edible Art Tour on several occasions. While these experiences have not influenced us in any way, this information is provided in the spirit of full disclosure.
Looks like a lively event with tasty food and great music.
