It's your final chance to get tickets to the last "Fire to Table" event of the season! The Farnam is hosting this multi-course, family-style meal on the patio of Catalyst Urban Lounge. If you haven't been to one of these events yet, I'd highly recommend it! Watch your meal made over an open fire while you connect with other local food lovers.
