The evening will feature traditional crafts and interactive experiences, along with a wide variety of local cuisine. Attendees will also have the opportunity to have the opportunity to sample a diverse assortment of local alcohol beverages. This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with colleagues, experience local traditions firsthand, and take home your own creations from the evening.
