Art Food & Roots Event
Saint Patrick’s Day traditionally is celebrated by drinking green beer, wearing green, pinching people who aren’t wearing green, and claiming some kind of Irish heritage for the benefit of kisses and hugs. But from 6 to 9 p.m. on March 17 this year, Art Food & Roots at Café de Thai in Reno brings a refreshing change of pace from clovers and leprechauns. The event offers a chance for community members to celebrate and support urban gardening and education for local youths.
