The Art of Food is an exhibition that celebrates the creative dialogue between the visual and the culinary. This exhibition features a selection of works that elevate everyday meals, ingredients, and culinary traditions into works of art. Artists reinterpret the familiar through form, color, and texture—turning plates into palettes and kitchens into studios. Each piece reflects how food connects us to memory, culture, celebration, and creativity. The exhibition invites guests to slow down and savor the artistry found in the ordinary.

The show’s food theme was inspired by our February fundraiser, Taste of the Arts, taking place on February 21, 5-8:30pm. Together, the show and the fundraiser invite guests to enjoy food-inspired art while savoring delicious dishes — creating a shared experience for both the eyes at the appetite!

The opening of this show will take place at Arts on Main on Friday, February 6th from 5:30pm - 7:30pm. This event is free and open to the public. Live music will be performed by Ami Baker. Light bites will be served, and beer + wine will be available for purchase. The show will be on display at Arts on Main until Saturday, February 28th. The gallery is open Wednesday - Saturday from 12-5pm. 

Thank you to our January Exhibit Sponsor, Linda M. Wahlman!
