Israeli Art in a Bite

What does a painting taste like? The Flint Institute of Arts and Studio Mela invite you to get familiar with Israeli culture through the bond between food and art.  Join us for a special group workshop that translates visual arts to culinary arts.  Together, we will smell, touch, feel and taste each creation and try to identify the painting it was inspired by. There will be a variety of raw ingredients of different colors, flavors and textures unique to Israeli cuisine at our disposal. With these you will design a bite that expresses the essence of the artwork you have chosen.

Space is limited.  Cost is $135 per person. To register, call or stop by the FIA Art School office, or click flintarts.org/learn.
