The Kitchen Tour will be on Saturday, August 19. You will be inspired by the tour's exciting kitchens, from cozy and comfortable to elegant and understated. While touring the kitchens, you will meet a seventh generation West Virginian salt purveyor, a seventh generation Georgian and gentleman cookbook author, a renowned and engaging landscape architect who digs our plateau, as well as other exemplary designers and chefs. The Laurel Kitchen Shop returns to the Performing Arts Center with new items and features this year, including handcrafted floral bouquets. Enjoy a sip of champagne with The Saucy Sisters, shop the selection of gently loved home goods, and don't miss the homemade casseroles, appetizers, soups and desserts, all from specially selected, delightful recipes. You can pre-order some of the items that will be in the store below.
