The 10-day celebration will take place Feb. 21 through March 2 and will feature special events, unique menu offerings and discounts.
The kick-off dinner will take place Thursday, Feb. 20, and start with a cocktail reception at Crush’d in Danville, followed by dinner and a live auction at Tides Restaurant.
