Taste, sip, stroll and explore at the CWE Art & Taste. Join us on Saturday, Oct. 3, from 1-5 p.m. for an afternoon filled with artist talks at CWE galleries, unique art vendors and an opportunity to sample bites from some of your favorite CWE restaurants.
How It Works:
Enjoy a day of art in the neighborhood
