Arizona Storytellers: Food and Family

Join azcentral.com, The Arizona Republic and Alliance Bank of Arizona under the stars at the Farm at South Mountain for a night of stories about families, food and the ways these two things often come together to shape us. (DRESS WARMLY; we'll be outside!)

Note: Salads and sandwiches of all kinds, fabulous pastries and cookies, as well as wine and non-alcoholic beverages are available for purchase. Dining is picnic-style on tables out on a lawn or a little patio. It's unbelievably charming. 

Co-emcee:

Republic restaurant critic Dominic Armato

Chef Christian A. Movassaghi of the Arizona Room Patio Grill at Casino Arizona, member of the Navajo Nation
