The Inaugural Arizona Farm & Food Festival Menus Highlight the Synergy of Arizona Agriculture Partnered with Local Culinary Talent

10/24/2018

 
The brand new culinary festival will be an exposition of the best of Arizona's cultural heritage with a fresh perspective
Southern Arizona Arts & Cultural Alliance (SAACA) and Casino Del Sol are putting the finishing touches on preparations for the brand new Arizona Farm & Food Festival, which will open it's gates to hundreds of attendees on November 10, 2018 at the Casino's AVA Amphitheater.

The inaugural event is a fresh, new culinary affair in Southern Arizona, with the Casino's Executive Chef, Ryan Clark leading the vision. The Arizona Farm & Food Festival is a family-friendly event that partners a regional purveyor with a local chef, and tasks them with creating a unique menu to share with attendees.

Event highlights will include live cooking demonstrations, food samplings, Heirloom Farmer's Market "Taste the Market" tent, children's activities, cultural entertainment and opportunities to meet and interact with the chefs and producers. Local spirits purveyors will be prominent at the festival in the interactive wine and beer tent. Libations from the region's breweries and distilleries will be offered, along with guided tasting tours for the over 21 crowd.

Live entertainment and interactive arts experiences will be on tap throughout the day, featuring: the Blues, Americana, Alt-Country act, Kevin Pakulis and His Band; and the Begaye Trio, contributing Navajo music, dancing, and painting. Additional experiences will include acoustic guitar performances, a live painter and activities provided by the Pascua Yaqui Tribe-Department of Language and Culture, and the Tucson Quilt Project.

INSPIRATION

Chef Ryan Clark is a force in the culinary world and has been increasingly in demand nationally and internationally for his talents as chef, teacher, and restaurant consultant. His passion for farm to table cuisine has been an ongoing focus of his career, and the event is an opportunity to share that passion on a large scale. "This festival is unlike any event that we have in the region," said Clark. "Each station will be a unique opportunity for guests to interact with the chef preparing the dish, the farmer that produced the food and the brewer or distiller of the paired beverage, all served in one bite. The Arizona Farm & Food Festival is about providing a food-experience that facilitates building relationships and strengthening our community in an impactful way." Chef Ryan is currently the executive chef of Casino Del Sol where he oversees all culinary operations for the Forbes Four Star award-winning casino resort.

The Southern Arizona Arts & Cultural Alliance (SAACA) produces several culinary festivals throughout the year that highlight the region's vibrant culinary arts scene. This inaugural event represents a new partnership and a new model for the nonprofit organization, creating fresh avenues for integrating arts experiences that capture the spirit of the event. "The Arizona Farm & Food Festival is an investment in the sustainability of Arizona's cultural food heritage and connecting chefs and restaurants with local food producers supports preservation of our culture," said Kate Marquez, SAACA Executive Director.

Southern Arizona Artists will Open their Doors and Creative Work Spaces to Visitors

10/18/2018

 
The Fall 2018 Open Studio Tours to feature record number of local artists
The 2018 Fall Open Studio Tours is almost here! The much anticipated, self-guided art studio tours will take place over two weekends in Southern Arizona. Weekend 1 will include all participants SOUTH of River Road -- the weekend of October 27 & 28th; and weekend 2 will include all participants NORTH of River Road -- November 3 & 4. The Southern Arizona Arts & Cultural Alliance is partnering with the Arts Foundation for Tucson and Southern Arizona to make the Open Studio Tours possible.

The free, self-guided tours will draw thousands of visitors to explore the neighborhood studios, view the creative industries of the region, and in many cases, see live demonstrations and participate in artist meet and greets. Over 250 artists have registered to participate in the 2018 Tours.

The artists will open their homes and studios to welcome visitors to view a wide variety of artistic mediums created within. The multiple art forms include painting, sculpture, photography, pottery, silk dyes, textiles, wood-carving, metal work, jewelry, ceramics, glass-blowing and so much more!
 
The Fall Open Studio Tours in Southern Arizona is one of the largest self-guided tours of artist studios and creative work spaces in the region, featuring two weekends showcasing artists and local creative businesses from across Southern Arizona.  Everyone from the local community is invited to participate and support the talented, unique artists that include our friends and neighbors.

The Southern Arizona Arts & Cultural Alliance has a website customized just for these two weekends, making it easier than ever to locate these artist spaces. The website features a map with the locations of all participants and profiles of the participating artists. Detailed information such as artist mediums, sample work, location information and studio activities can be found at www.OpenStudioTours.com.

The mission of Open Studio Tours is to support and promote local artists who work and exhibit in Southern Arizona and is a cooperative effort between the Southern Arizona Arts & Cultural Alliance and the Arts Foundation for Tucson and Southern Arizona.

 "In exhibitions we see an artist's final piece. Open Studio Tours offers us all a rare opportunity to see the place where work is made, and to ask artists questions, in person, about their work and their process," said Carol Varney, Executive Director of the Arts Foundation. "These artists give voice to Tucson, Pima County, and Southern Arizona, and we extend our thanks to the City of Tucson and Pima County, without whose funding this kind of experience would not be possible. The tour shows us, in a tangible way, that artists are working in every corner of our community, and are at the forefront of community creation, critical thinking and cultural development, enhancing our lives in Southern Arizona."

Kate Marquez, SAACA's Executive Director, looks forward to the partnership. "The Southern Arizona Arts & Cultural Alliance is proud to collaborate with the Arts Foundation and local artists for Tucson and Southern Arizona, to support, and advance the Open Studio Tours throughout our region, and provide resources for hundreds of local artists to showcase, develop and promote their original artwork in the community," said Marquez. "SAACA truly believes that our collective impact will only continue to grow when our creative community comes together to collaborate on these types of projects."

Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to participate in the incredible creativity the Southern Arizona region has to offer. Support your local artists and get inspired.
