   It's time to take a break from the trials of life and take a cue from Italy: apply the brakes and take some time to enjoy your life, your food, and your friends by joining the Hazleton Art League for a Fall Italian Wine and Food Dinner. The Hazleton Art League in conjunction with Mea's Fine Dining Restaurant will show you the way with a five course menu and wine pairings by Barbara Brazon, along with ideas for creating a leisurely dinner party with a distinctly Italian flair by Ed and Jim Kulish. Leave your stresses and your fears about choosing the correct wine behind to take an opportunity to learn. You can choose to learn a little or a lot, while you dine and taste. Think of it as a brief introduction to a dialogue that the food and the wine will carry on.

   We will offer a memorable dining experience.
