Guests can indulge in food pairings, enjoy music from Joe Justice and enter-to-win an exquisite meal prepared by Taste of Home Cooking School’s Chef Karen Davis, who will share fall recipes and teach step-by-step cooking demonstrations the following day at 11 a.m., 1, 3 and 5 p.m. at the Fall Home Design Expo -same location as The Indiana Wine Experience. Additionally, guests attending the wine event can attend the cooking sessions for free with a ticket stub.<\/p>\n

And for the first time, Wine & Canvas will offer guests with little to no painting experience a chance to create personalized art. Painting lessons will be held on a first-come, first-served basis throughout the evening, and guests will take home their very own 8″x10″ acrylic masterpiece.<\/p>\n
