Taste of Lakewood: New Site, More Vendors

Event moves to Screw Factory after years at Clifton Club.

 

The ninth annual Taste of Lakewood will be bringing back to the neighborhood the irresistible combination of art and food for another round of good eats and visual treats on June 3.

But this time around, the Taste of Lakewood will be in a new location.

The event will be held at the Lake Erie Building, Templar Industrial Park, also known as the Screw Factory, after being held at the Clifton Club for its first eight years.

“It’s a larger venue. Instead of limiting ourselves to 22 restaurants, we’re going to have 28. We will be able to sell more tickets. We’re partnering with the Screw Factory artists as well, and they’ll have their studios open,” Val Mechenbier, of the Lakewood Chamber of Commerce, said.

The Taste of Lakewood runs from 4 to 7 p.m. and will have live jazz and cover-band music on two floors. There will also be raffle baskets and the Templar Motors Car Display.

A portion of the proceeds from this event will benefit the Lakewood Chamber of Commerce’s scholarship fund. The fund assists college-bound high school seniors from St. Edward and Lakewood High schools.

Tickets are $30 and are available at the Lakewood Chamber of Commerce and Nature’s Bin or online at www.tasteoflakewood.com.

Free parking will be available at the east parking lot of the Lake Erie Building and the municipal parking lot across the street.
