| Article Title: | Celebrate All Things Tomato at the 2012 Tomato Art Fest |
| Article: | Historic East Nashville’s Five Points area will celebrate all things tomato on August 11 at its annual event. This event brings together great art, good music, delectable food, and a barrel of fun making the sweltering days of August just a little more bearable. The Tomato Art Fest was founded by Meg and Bret MacFadyen, owners of East Nashville’s Art and Invention Gallery. In 2004, the gallery hosted an art show celebrating the tomato in late summer, and planned a few neighborhood events to promote the show. The Tomato Art Fest proved so popular that it immediately turned into an annual, signature event for the hip, urban neighborhood of East Nashville. A community builder, the Tomato Art Fest has steadily drawn larger crowds with each year that passes. Last year, an estimated 18,000 came to celebrate this beloved fruit/vegetable and enjoy the day’s festivities. For more information, call (615) 226-2070 or visit www.tomatoartfest.com. |
