Taste Art was created by The Avenues as a series of innovative dining events that pair West Hollywood's premier art galleries and restaurants. "Art Tastings" take place at restaurants showcasing elaborate prix-fixe menus that feature diverse and inventive collaborations between the city's hottest chefs and art curators.
Taste Art evenings consist of a 4-5-course menu and wine pairing inspired by a selection of artworks that will be presented in a gallery-like atmosphere. During each event, the curator, chef and sommelier will each present their unique contributions to the menu, providing insight into their philosophies behind the evening's art, food, and wine selections.
Cost per person: $180. Tickets must be purchased online at www.AvenuesWH.com A portion of the proceeds will benefit the West Hollywood Library Fund.
