Palate: The Art of Cuisine — Livermore Valley Arts

June 6th, 2026

12-3pm

Join us as we expand our celebration of the Arts to include the Culinary Arts. On June 6th, 2026, we are welcoming cuisine into the creative repertoire championed by Livermore Valley Arts.

At this inaugural lunchtime event, Tri-Valley chefs come together to present a vibrant array of signature dishes that showcase the flavor, innovation, and artistry of our region. Local chefs, bars & pastry chefs will offer curated samples from their menus, inviting guests to savor the culinary expertise of the Tri-Valley. Each chef will create a signature small plate inspired by a single, prominent color, bringing a vivid palette of flavors to life.

Taste all the Tri-Valley has to offer at our Summer Fundraiser, while enjoying live music by Jeff Bordes outdoors on the Shea Homes Stage in the Bankhead Plaza!

We are delighted to introduce Palate as a new annual tradition and invite you to join us for our debut event, presented during Visit Tri-Valley’s Twist Weekend. A spectrum of taste, with multiple chefs presenting dishes inspired by bold hues.

Taste, vote, and help crown the audience favorite.

Your ticket will include small plates from each of six Chefs and one drink ticket to use at one of three bars.
