For five years now, the Charleston Fine Art Dealers’ Association’s Annual Palette and Palate Stroll has made its name as one of the most anticipated visual art and fine food summer events in the South.

This year’s event will take place on Friday, July 16, 2010. Fine art and food connoisseurs will stroll through the historic streets of downtown Charleston, sampling tastings from twelve of the finest local restaurants in the beautiful setting of twelve prestigious galleries. The Palette and Palate Stroll starts at 5:30pm and ends at 7:30pm.

A smashing hit since its establishment in 2005, the Palette and Palate Stroll presents the best of Charleston in one amazing evening.
