A Taste of What Makes Catonsville Great

The Greater Catonsville Chamber of Commerce will host the 18th annual Taste of Catonsville at the historic Overhills Mansion on Monday, June 2 from 6 to 9 p.m. The popularity of the event increased so dramatically last year that event organizers decided to return to the same theme again this year: A Taste of Catonsville Beyond Your Taste Buds! Though the Taste of Catonsville highlights the best cuisine our area has to offer, it features much more than food. Catonsville's finest restaurants will offer samples of their signature dishes, of course, but the event will also offer a "taste" of our Farmers Market, a "taste" of our Arts & Crafts Festival, a "taste" of our Flower Fest & Garden Party and a "taste" of the Catonsville July 4th Celebration, as well as tastings of local craft beer and fine wine. Vendors will offer samples to enjoy that evening as well as products to purchase and take home.

The event’s exciting new location at the elegant Overhills Mansion (circa 1897) at 916 S. Rolling Road, allows for expanded outdoor venues. As part of the expansion, the Taste of Catonsville will offer beer and wine tasting stations featuring the award-winning craft brews of Heavy Seas and specialty beers selected by Oakdale Fine Wine & Spirits plus a choice sampling of the quality, family owned, small-vineyard ​wines featured at The Breadery. The Chamber of Commerce is thrilled to have Catonsville resident celebrity and co-anchor of the WBAL-TV morning news, Mindy Basara, serve as Master of Ceremonies. Moreover, since music is a vital part of so many Catonsville events, The Taste of Catonsville will feature live music from Three’s A Crowd (Richard Walton & Vicki Fitez Scarinzi). So while guests sample a wonderful variety of food, drinks and products, they will enjoy home-grown music, highlighting Catonsville's designation as Music City Maryland. All these engaging offerings are made possible by the generous sponsorship of The Neighborhoods at St. Elizabeth, Edible Arrangements of Catonsville, Ships Café, ABC Party & Tent Rental and Indigo Ink Digital Printing.

The 2014 Taste of Catonsville highlights everything that makes Catonsville THE PLACE to live, work, shop and play. Don’t miss it!
