Eat Your Art Out at Tavern Road

Culinary and Visual Arts Intersect for Studio Sundays at the Fort Point Hot Spot

WHAT:                 Many chefs are inspired by art, playing with color, arrangement and texture when plating their dishes – not unlike a painter approaches a canvas. At Tavern Road, Louis DiBiccari wears many hats as a chef, a supporter of local artists and an innovator working to further the intersection of culinary and fine arts. This dedication to support not only the emerging Fort Point business community but also the neighborhood’s long-standing artist community is the catalyst for Louis’ newest venture: Studio Sundays.

 

                                Starting in January, on the fourth Sunday of each month TR Street Foods (Tavern Road’s fast-casual lunch spot) will transform into a high-energy gallery showcasing work from a local artist alongside bites from Tavern Road’s innovative menu and handcrafted cocktails from the talented bar staff. As some of Boston’s most talented visual & creative artists and indie designers take over the graffiti-laden space, guests are invited to peruse, purchase and experience the excitement of new artistic ideas.

                                The starting line-up for Studio Sundays includes:

·         Sunday, January 26: Patt Kelley

Local illustrator/comic artist (and MassArt graduate) with a weekly comic strip in dig Boston (“What’s For Breakfast?”)

·         Sunday, February 23: Natasha Moustache

Natasha has a keen eye for capturing keepsake moments from her travels like the majestic movements of African wildlife and the telling expressions from native people she encounters

·         Sunday, March 23: Bill Phaneuf

Specializes in crafting reclaimed wood picture frames, up-cycled window mirrors and custom rustic wood furniture from aged and vintage materials

About Tavern Road

From Brothers Louis & Michael DiBiccari, Tavern Road is the neighborhood spot of Fort Point & the Innovation District – an easy-going, inviting place to regularly visit for elevated, yet approachable food & drink. Brothers DiBiccari derived inspiration for the restaurant from their Uncle Adio DiBiccari, an American master sculptor, and his art studio, which was located on Tavern Road by the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. In a nod to both old and new, the restaurant features family heirlooms from Adio alongside modern interpretations of his work by local artists from Fort Point Channel.  Like the local artists’ works adorning the walls of Tavern Road, Louis has approached the menu as his canvas – handcrafting each item with creativity and purpose; sourcing the best local and seasonal ingredients from the New England farmers he’s cultivated strong relationships with throughout his many years as a Boston chef.
