Rare Culinary Collaboration

On October 13th, food and beverage enthusiasts gathered at the West Monroe Convention Center for the 3rd Annual North Delta Food and Wine Festival. Each year, the Northeast Louisiana Arts Council showcases the talents of local chefs, as well as visiting culinary artists. Proceeds from the event benefit the Arts Council and its efforts to support and promote the arts in Louisiana Cultural Region 8. The festival kicked off Friday night with the “Rare Culinary Collaboration,” a three-hour tasting extravanganza that featured foods created by more than 25 southern chefs. Later in the evening, ticketholders were invited to mingle with their favorite chefs as the party moved to SQ’s on the River. The Arts Council appreciates the tireless efforts and remarkable generosity of our community for their continued support of the arts in our region.
