The Arlington Museum of Art is partnering with confectionary artists from throughout the region to present the fifth annual Eat Your Art Out. The festive and delicious event will be from 7-9 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 25, 2023.
“The evening is designed for the art community and people from across North Texas to interact with a selection of the best culinary artists in our region,” said Chris Hightower, President and CEO of the Arlington Museum of Art. “It’s also an opportunity for art lovers to support Arlington’s only art museum.”
More than a dozen confectionery masterpieces will be on display throughout the museum’s galleries. Participating bakeries include Bronwen Cakes (Dallas), Buttermilk Sky Pies (Arlington), Sugarlicious (Lancaster), Sweet Kate Bakes (Mansfield), and Marcona Kitchen (Arlington). Arlington ISD student bakers from Bistro @ CTC will represent the school district’s culinary program.
In addition to generous, sweet tooth-satisfying sampling, attendees will enjoy hors d’oeuvres, wine, coffee, and a champagne toast while participating in a raffle and auction.
This decadent event is the AMA’s largest fundraiser of the year, providing support for year-round educational programs for all ages, community outreach, and the museum’s ever-changing art exhibits including last summer’s Disney Art from Private Collections and A Knight’s Tale, which concluded Sunday, Feb. 12, 2023.
As the winner of the People’s Choice Award, presented by the Arlington Tomorrow Foundation during the annual North Texas Giving Day event last fall, the Arlington Museum of Art is becoming a recognized innovator in exhibition curation and programming.
“Just look at what the Arlington Museum of Art has been doing over the last several years,” said Carolyn Mentesana, Executive Director of the Arlington Tomorrow Foundation. “They are proving themselves to be a force in the art world. Their body of work is clearly relevant, sustainable, and shows that the AMA is a powerful arts destination for Arlington and North Texas.”
