Broad Appetit is this Sunday

The First Annual Broad Appetit Food and Art Celebration which will take over Broad Street between Adams and Monroe this coming Sunday, May 18th.
From the Broad Appetit site:
The first annual Broad Appetit Food Festival will feature Richmond’s favorite food purveyors, restaurants, chefs and artisans. The event is free to the public and is designed to feed your mind, body and soul with an eclectic mix of crafts and art, more food than you can imagine and a huge kid’s area with puppet shows and story-telling. A performing arts stage will host musical acts and performance artists, and demonstrations will be on hand from fascinating folks like our nations leading Bug Chefs and food revolution leader Joel Salatin.
The big taste-off will be the Taste Of Richmond “To Die For” Dish Awards in 25 to 30 of Richmond’s best chefs prepare three mini-dishes, each of which the public can taste for $3. Each chef will submit one of those delicious dishes to be judged by a panel of experts who will determine who has the “To Die For”Dish of Richmond.
Check out the event schedule, the food, and the artists of the WHODUNNIT? exhibition @ Quirk Gallery.
