The City of Lake Worth: A Vortex of Creativity

Create Date and Bean Scene Events: A Boost to City of Lake Worth's  Popularity!


Hundreds of people showed up for back to back events; artists, chefs, locals, tourist, and some first time visitors!
Here are some pictures of Vortex of Creativity that engulfed the city!

ARIST PLAY DATE:
Artists Play Date, the brainchild of 
AnnaMaria Windisch-Hunt and Rolando Chang Barrero, was created 
as fun event to gather local creatives to come out and literally play together and get to know one another.
The ARTIST PLAY DAtE (a private invitation only group on facebook) is 754 members strong at last count; 
the group continues to grow and is expected to be "1000 Strong."
Contact: Rolando Chang Barrero to join the page, or ask anyone of your artist friends for an invite.

The first PLAY DATE was called Create Date and was held in Lake Worth along Lucerne Avenue that 
has blossomed into what is fast becoming recognized as the Palm Beach Fine Dining and Fine Art Corridor. 

Lucerne Avenue has it's own hash tag #LuxuryOnLucerne and landing page on Goggle+ 

The Bean Scene:

VEGAN CHILI COOK-OFF competition & MEGA ANIMAL ADOPTION CHARITY EVENT was organized as a benefit  for the food pantry Community Caring Center of Boynton Beach and Saving Grace and Her Furry Friends Dog Rescue. The vegan chili was delicious and satisfying to say the least. Suppprtors got to vote for your favorite plant-based chili from top area chefs.

The winners: 
Judges Choice: Grommet's Tavern & Eats - Juno BeachPeople's Choices, 3rd place: Suri Tapas Bar in Lake Worth, 2nd place: 4th Generation Organic Market & Cafe and in FIRST PLACE: Rahein Jones and team at The New Vegan

The Bean Scene continues: Interested in going vegetarian or vegan? We'll launch a month's worth of activities at the Chili Cook-off to support you in a 30-day challenge. A "Best of Vegan in Palm Beach County" line-up featuring everything from vegan cooking classes to movie screenings, social meet-ups at the best vegan restaurants and much more.
