If you missed “The Art of the Pallette” Event at the Community Council for the Arts, you missed a great event filled with art showings from familiar and new artists, but you also missed many culinary delights. Lucky for you, I am sharing some of the recipes that were served at the event, and some of the art pieces are still hanging, but maybe not for long. Hurry, do not wait to catch them before they are sold!!!
