The Canton Regional Chamber of Commerce will host its annual Vintage Canton Thursday, Sept. 16, from 4:30 to 9:30 p.m. in downtown Canton. Vintage Canton is a sophisticated downtown gathering, offering distinctive center city charm alongside live music, vibrant art exhibits and, of course, quality local wine, beer and a sampling of food. Canton is a short 30 minute drive from Whispering Pines Bed & Breakfast. Why not also spend the night at Whispering Pines, overlooking beautiful Atwood Lake. We’ll even offer 10% off the price of the room.
This year’s Vintage Canton gathering will feature more than 60 of the finest quality wines from area wineries , including Gervasi Vineyards, Breitenbach Wine Cellar, Maize Valley Winery, Mastropietro Winery, Perennial Vineyards, Myrddin Winery, Troutman Vineyards, and Winery at Wolf Creek. Microbrew beers from Great Lakes Brewery, Thirsty Dog Brewery and select specialty beers from World Market will also be available in lieu of the eight wine samples included with event admission.
Guests will also be able to enjoy small tasting plates for a nominal charge from downtown restaurants and Stark County favorites, including 356 Fighter Group, Almost Heaven Ice Cream, Arcadia Grille, Bender’s Tavern, Brownstone Steakhouse, Iris Restaurant, Napoli’s Italian Eatery, Peter Shear’s Downtown, Samantha’s Downtown Restaurant, Sheri’s Sweets & Cafe and Thorpe’s Market Avenue Grille.
Attendees will enjoy the fine wines, fine foods and fine friends to the rhythm of live blues. Mostly Blues Band with Mike Lenz will perform from 4:30 to 7 p.m., when Jeff Poulos Blues Revue will take over and finish out the evening at 9:30 p.m.
Tickets for Vintage Canton are $25 if purchased prior to 5 p.m. on Sept. 15, and $35 after that time and at the door. Tickets can be purchased online or call 330-458-2085. The ticket price includes eight wine tastings or microbrew samples, a variety of breads and cheeses, a collectible souvenir wine glass and a “Younique” Surprise from Gasser Jewelers.
The event is conveniently located in Central Plaza North, on Market Ave. between Tuscarawas St. and Third Ave. NE, and will be held rain or shine.
I’ll look forward to seeing you soon,
