NOURISH: A local celebration of food and art
NOURISH was a summer festival presented by The Umbrella Community Arts Center that celebrates local food and art in July 2017 following the incredibly successful 2nd Annual BIG Tiny House Festival in July 2016.
During the course of the free festival, 25 local food and arts-based businesses engaged with over 500 community members and families. The attendees had the opportunity to learn from educational kid-friendly food activities, listen to local musicians, and experience art demos from local painters and clay artists. Through suggested donations, the event raised over $1,500 for The Umbrella and the Greater Boston Food Bank.
