ABOUT FOOD AS ART


FOOD AS ART at Bell Harbor– April 18, 2009

Food As Art

A fabulous fundraiser for an even better cause, presented by The Safeco Corporation. Food as Art 2009  netted over $80,000 to support activities for our 10th Anniversary season. If you’d still like to contribute, please make a donation online or by phone to Ghida Sinno at (206) 323-4032. Thank you!

Back for its 6th year, Food as Art showcases the considerable culinary talents of African-American executive chefs and restaurateurs from the Puget Sound area and allows you to support CD Forum's upcoming tenth anniversary season. In addition to fabulous dining and complimentary wine service, guests will enjoy cocktails, a new dessert auction, and an auction featuring travel, dining and art.

And to put a cherry on top, the evening will feature the music of Ray Baldwin’s Version of Cool, DJ Robin Summerise and a special guest appearance by Cartoonist Keith Knight!
