The Epcot Festival of the Arts, January 17 to February 24, is a celebration of all art forms, but my favorite to discover is the culinary arts!
It’s true that you eat with your eyes first, and each of these festival exclusive Food Studios will paint an exquisite picture of gastronomical perfection!
Throughout Epcot’s World Showcase (and more) you can find fun and colorful fare, and here is a look at what you can find in each Epcot Festival of the Arts Food Studio.
