The Morrison Gallery is co-hosting the event with Kents finest dining establishments, The Fife n Drum Restaurant, Docs Trattoria, and Bulls Bridge Inn along with Northeast Beverage Company. Delicious hors d'ouvres are signatures of each restaurant; fresh mozzarella and grape tomato lollipops, asparagus bruschetta, crab cakes with chipotle aioli, melon wrapped in prosciutto, gourmet cheeses, sausages, fruits and fresh bread, a carving station with beef, chicken and pork and for dessert, mini cannoli, chocolate torte, tiramisu and more. Fine wines and Magic Hat microbrews will accompany the food. Music will be provided by outstanding students from Litchfield Jazz Camp, whose scholarship program the event supports.

We are still awaiting the "fine wines" promised to us.


Never trust a man with a bowtie and no drink.
