Savory September: New York, New York

Sponsored by VisitMartinsville, Diviserified Trust, Ameristaff, Bassett Office Supply, Collinsville Printing Co., and Draper Flowers and Gifts.

Big city flavors meet small town charm at this New York-themed fundraiser for the arts from 6:30-9:30 p.m., Friday, Sept. 18, at Piedmont Arts.

Local chefs will serve up small bites straight from the soul of the city: the corner deli, the late-night slice joint, the ballpark, and the legendary supper clubs of Manhattan. Pair that with custom cocktails and live music by Marie Anderson, and you’ve got yourself a party worth hailing a cab for.

They call it the Big Apple for a reason. It's time to take a bite!
