‘DINNER AND THE SHOW’ RETURNS TO CLARK ART INSTITUTE;
INCLUDES TOUR OF VAN GOGH EXHIBITION
The Clark Art Institute’s popular program “Dinner and the Show” will be held Saturday, August 22 at 6 pm. The evening begins with a tour of the exhibition Van Gogh and Nature with Richard Kendall, curator at large at the Clark. Kendall will touch on Vincent van Gogh’s lifelong preoccupation with nature, from the minutiae of birds’ nests and insects to the sweeping panoramic landscapes of rural Holland and France. After the tour, guests will enjoy a gourmet meal prepared by Starr Executive Chef Daniel Hardy. Tickets are $60 ($55 members), including tax and gratuity. Beverages are extra. Vegetarian and gluten-free options are available by advance request. Space is limited; reservations are required.
The menu includes seared diver scallops with fried green tomato, corn veloute, and tomato bacon jam; chicken estragon with caramelized cauliflower, capers, mustard herb gnocchi, spinach, carrots, Moroccan lentils, and jus; and sweet corn cake with salted caramel, buttered corn, ice cream, and spiced blueberries.
“Dinner and the Show” showcases the exceptional cuisine of Stephen Starr Events, a division of the acclaimed Starr Restaurant Group. Starr, the Clark’s culinary partner, brings creative, innovative, and artful menus to Café 7 that feature locally sourced ingredients.
