Saturday, Feb 17 11am-4pm This year the event will be held in the old Third District Police Station at 2727 South 12th. Now called Mad Art, Ron Buechele has created an impressive gallery that is available to rent for parties and receptions.
Art is displayed and parties played out in what was the garage area of the station.
Many vintners' representatives will be sharing their products and teaching about the winemaker's art as people enjoy the graphic art displayed throughout the building. It's a great learning environment for wine fanciers and those who want to learn about the fruit of the grape. The microbrew taste will have a single location this year - a tent in Soulard Market Park. Schalfly's St. Louis Brewing Company will have eight styles of beer available. Participants will buy a commemorative cup featuring the newly designed Mardi Gras Inc. logo.
