An Arizona-based food, beverage and travel writer since 2008, I launched this website in 2015 to document my culinary adventures, beverage escapades, gardening endeavors, and travel in the Phoenix area and beyond. Also find a comprehensive calendar of Phoenix-area food and drink-related events on my Events page.
One of the Southwest’s longest-running festivals, the Tempe Festival of the Arts celebrates visual artists along with a full slate of entertainment on multiple stages and culinary delights for a full sensory experience. More than 350 juried artists from around the country will compete for top honors from wood, photography and ceramics to glass, jewelry and other mediums. More than 20 different food options by way of a food court, food trucks, and snack and drink vendors will be available on site. The 360° experience includes a full slate of musical entertainment featuring well-known local and regional music at four separate stages throughout the event.
