As Seattleites, we embrace multiple forms of art– including food.  Next month, foodies and eaties will congregate for an evening to tour the culinary talents of top African-American executive chefs and restaurateurs from around the Emerald City in the 9^th Annual Food as Art Fundraiser.

This benefit will host professional culinary artists from the area to create a night full of delicious gourmet food and cocktails.  In addition, there will be a silent auction, dessert auction and dancing.  Whether you like to explore and taste new food or are part of the diverse community, come and enjoy this event to help support the Central District Forum for Arts & Ideas (CD Forum).

The CD Forum is a Seattle organization that highlights innovative African-American art and culture, and strives to inspire new thoughts and challenge assumptions and stereotypes.  The delicacies that will be crafted throughout the evening will give guests food for thought in new and innovative ways.
