Preview Party Planned!

The Preview Party for this year's Taste of Mississippi will be a little different than in past years. It will be from 5 to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, March 9, at the Electric Building, 308 East Pearl St., in downtown Jackson.

The event will be a progressive party that highlights downtown Jackson real estate and gives a preview of Taste of Mississippi. The lobby and areas on three floors of the building will be open for touring during the party.

Guests will be able to purchase items for sale that night such as artwork by Jackson-area artists, restaurant gift certificates and handmade jewelry. Items not sold during the Preview Party will be featured in a silent auction during Taste of Mississippi.

Food and drinks will be provided by local vendors, including several downtown restaurants. Admission is free, although a $20 donation is recommended.

We'd love to see you there!
