The Canton Development Partnership, a department of the Canton Regional Chamber of Commerce, will host its annual Vintage Canton event on Wednesday, Sept. 10, from 4:30 to 9:30 p.m. along Central Plaza North in downtown Canton. Vintage Canton is a sophisticated downtown gathering, offering distinctive center city charm alongside live music, vibrant art exhibits and, of course, fine food and beverages.
The event gives guests the chance to relax and unwind while enjoying wine from local wineries, craft beers, delicacies from downtown and greater Canton eateries, memorable live music, and artists. This year’s Vintage Canton gathering will feature some of the finest quality wines from area wineries and abroad, including Barrel Run Winery, Breitenbach Wine Cellars, Easley Winery, Gervasi Vineyard, and Raven's Glenn Winery, along with selections from distributors and retailers, including Grapes in a Glass, Heidelberg Distributing, L.A. Dick Imports, and Natural State Wines. Craft beers from Heidelberg will also be available in lieu of the eight wine samples included with event admission.
Guests will also be able to enjoy small tasting plates for a nominal charge from downtown restaurants and Stark County favorites, including Bender’s Tavern, Canal Tavern of Zoar, The Canton Club, Chocolates by Erin, Desert Inn Restaurant, George's Lounge, Peace Love & Little Donuts, Tapas 218 and Thorpe’s Market Avenue Grill & Pub. The whole evening will be set to a musical backdrop of the rhythms of Yankee Bravo.
