Let’s Catch Up!

January gives you plenty of reasons to spend an evening at Arts & Central! Explore the work of our Artist of the Month, Cat Tesla, and join us for her featured artist event on January 18th. Then, on January 23rd, settle in for our Forks & Corks Wine Tasting Dinner—where thoughtfully crafted cuisine, curated wines, and art are woven into the experience!

January Artist of the Month

Join us Sunday, January 18th, at 5 PM for an evening centered on art and cuisine. We’re welcoming featured artist Cat Tesla—meet her in person, explore her work featured across our menus, and enjoy dinner through a creative new lens. Thoughtful food, curated art, fresh perspective!

Cat shares her perspective on the deeply personal act of painting:

“Painting is a deep dive act that happens within oneself, with a goal of pulling out something beautiful for the world to connect with. This has become even more important to me since an early diagnosed breast cancer was resolved, leaving me grateful and even more focused and motivated.

Everyone has gifts from the creator. I believe it is the duty of each to share our gifts with the planet. My paintings are a brave look inward - revealing what lies beneath both literally and spiritually. For me, painting is the most life affirming thing to do.”

- Cat Tesla
