Roswell Arts Fund, in partnership with the City of Roswell, proudly presented FOOD IS ART, a culinary celebration on June 8, 2024. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who joined us for the event! It was a resounding success, filled with memorable moments and delightful experiences celebrating the artistry of the culinary world.

Highlights of the event included:

The stunning gardens of Barrington Hall created a picturesque setting for guests to enjoy leisurely strolls.

The chefs truly impressed with their delicious creations, each dish a testament to their artistry and culinary skills.

The lively atmosphere was further enhanced by fantastic live music from Marla Feeney and her swing trio, keeping everyone entertained throughout the day.

Beverages from From the Earth Brewing Company were perfectly pairing with the gourmet fare and adding to the overall experience.

We were delighted to see so many community members and dedicated volunteers come out to support and enjoy the event, making it a true celebration of art and culture.

And finally a very special thank you to our sponsors for their generous support, which was crucial in bringing this event to life.
