Melissa McClelland At Table

 

Sunday, March 20 at 4:00 p.m.

SOLD OUT – WAITLIST ONLY

Spring family comfort food with Melissa McClelland, Cleveland food and photo stylist.

 

Five multi-course food events accompany our exhibition, At Table: Cleveland Culinaria, each planned by one of the participating culinary innovators. Attendees will enjoy a hearty array of small plates and craft cocktails, along with lively conversation with chefs, partnering visual artists, and poets in an intimate gallery setting.

 

“Sunday suppers are a time for family and friends of all ages to gather, talk, and enjoy each other’s company. Time spent over meals builds community and sustains us. This menu in particular expresses the hope of new beginnings found in spring.”   Melissa McClelland

ABOUT MELISSA McCLELLAND

I am a freelance food and set stylist living in Cleveland Heights. Cooking, art and design have long been intertwined, starting with me working as a line cook while in art school. Through a roundabout path which included work as a textile designer in NYC, a recipe tester and developer at Eating Well, a chef at Chapter’s Bookstore and Cafe, and a stylist/business partner with my photographer husband Len Mastri (all in Vermont), I landed back at home in Cleveland. I now freelance for a variety of photo studios and my work includes preparing food to be photographed for clients like Smucker’s and Nestle. I’m fortunate to collaborate with photographer Clarissa Westmeyer on the “In Season” column for Edible Cleveland, which features my recipes and styling and her gorgeous photos.
