The Million Dollar Cowboy Steakhouse will be serving both meat & vegetarian sliders at Davies Reid during this years Palates & Palettes Gallery Walk.

In Jackson-speak, the archetypal pairing of food and art occurs once a year during Fall Arts Festival. As its name suggests, the Palates & Palettes Gallery Walk celebrates the culinary and visual arts in tandem as galleries team up with restaurants to host free receptions.

Use this list – compiled from multiple sources – to plan your route tonight. (Note: even though some places are listed sans restaurants, they are participating). Palate & Palette receptions generally run from 5 to 8 p.m., unless otherwise noted.

MADE will have snacks from the shop and is also giving away hand printed Fall Arts posters. They are going to be signed and numbered prints offered to anyone who spends $25 or more in the shop. Limited in quantity so plan your gallery walk accordingly.

And for fashionistas, The Jackson Bootlegger will have Lucchese representatives in the store to help design custom one of kind pairs of western boots this weekend. From 5 to 7 p.m, Veuve Clicquot Champange and chocolates from Oscar Ortega will be served while customers shop their in-stock boots or while they create a pair of their own. On Saturday, anyone can stop in to work with Lucchese from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. or set up an appointment to meet with them.  To get your creative juices flowing, check out The Jackson Bootlegger’s ad in our current issue of Dishing, p.51, and get inspired by the Lucchese boots pictured.

Hanoi, Brooklyn and Jackson Hole do not share a trajectory save for the one I’ve traced. With an English Literature/ Creative Writing diploma from Princeton University, I moved to Viet Nam for an editing fellowship at the only English-language daily newspaper. Back stateside, I worked in merchandising at West Elm and marketing at the Asia Society before decamping to Wyoming to write for the Jackson Hole News&Guide. Now freelance, I supply words for a plethora of projects and publications. Most recently, I completed an intensive writing and research workshop with the Design Criticism MFA program at the School of Visual Arts in New York.
