The XVII Annual Taste of Wethersfield benefit returns on Saturday, April 5th from 7:00 pm – 9:30 pm at The Keeney Memorial Cultural Center, 200 Main Street, Wethersfield. Once again, the Keeney Center comes alive with the flavors and aromas of the area’s finest food and drink. Alex P. Taylor will emcee this year’s event. Long-time “Taste” favorites, the Hot Cat Jazz Band, are back to provide the evening’s soundtrack. The process of “Taste” remains the same: Attendees pay one admission and can try offerings from several local restaurants, caterers, breweries, and wine vendors, all under one roof. Samples of signature dishes and beverages are available at every station. All your local favorites will be there with many more additions arriving daily. Throughout the evening, a silent auction is conducted, offering guests the opportunity to bid on unique goods and services from local vendors.
