Arkansas Food Hall of Fame Winners’ Induction Ceremony

This evening will gather some of the finest food folks in the state of Arkansas for an evening of delicious bites, flavorful stories and more in support of Arkansas food culture, courtesy of Ben E. Keith.

Arkansas Heritage recognizes that any discussion of food in our state is not complete without addressing hunger as well. That's why we invite participants to bring one nonperishable food item for donation to the Arkansas Foodbank as an entry fee. Please note: RSVPs are required. We are also happy to welcome Ebony Mitchell, Director of External Affairs at the Arkansas Foodbank, as our event emcee.

Accepted items can be found on the Arkansas Foodbank website and include:

• Canned Meats, Vegetables, Fruits and Soup
• Breakfast Items (cereal, granola bars, instant oatmeal, toaster pastries) and Peanut Butter
• Meal Entrees (Hamburger Helper, pasta skillet meals, canned pasta meals), Rice and Dry Beans
• 100% Juices, Juice Boxes and Water

*Please note that certain foods are not allowed by the Health Department in Food Drives. These items are perishable foods, glass jars and bottles, homemade items, alcohol, expired food, baby food, opened jars or containers, non-canned seafood and dog food.

Join us to celebrate these winners and do some good along the way by bringing an item for the Arkansas Foodbank!
