Photo by Harry SayerHundreds of guests braved the heat for some good food and drinks during Forks and Corks food and wine festival's returning Grand Tasting event at the Ringling Museum of Art on April 23.
The event, put on by Sarasota-Manatee Originals and celebrating its 16th anniversary, showcased wines and delectable dishes from local Sarasota establishments. Guests picked up champagne and browsed various wines before heading into the museum itself for the main event.
Attendees mixed and mingled across the courtyard space while picking up wine from around 100 wineries. This year's event celebrated 20 years of Sarasota-Manatee Originals.
