Artful Dining 2012 was a series of eight events from September through November at homes in the Topeka area. Our hosts provided beautiful spaces and refreshments.
At each site local Topeka artists were featured and their works were on display for purchase.
Artful Dining has been created as an annual series of gatherings to benefit the Mulvane Art Museum.
All proceeds from event reservations, as well as 30% of art sales, will benefit the exhibition and education programs of the Mulvane Art Museum.
Select artists will display and sell works in an array of media:
