Ever wonder what goes on behind-the-scenes to create those mouth-watering brunch pictures, the unique menu design at your neighborhood bar, or the addicting food column in your favorite publication?

This Thursday, October 15, the American Institute of Graphic Artists Arizona Chapter (AIGA) and the Museum of Contemporary Art Tucson (MOCA) invite you to find out.

Join our very own Adam Lehrman, the official emcee, and a lineup of local photographers, writers, graphic designers, cultural anthropologists, marketers, and others as they reveal what goes into creating our local food scene from a visual and promotional standpoint.
