Plan for a spectacular evening of food and beverage tastings at the Sister Cities of Louisville’s annual International Gala on Oct. 23.

The event begins at 5:30 p.m. at the Muhammad Ali Center and will include food prepared by Sullivan University’s Culinary Arts students. The food will reflect the cuisines of Louisville’s nine sister cities, so expect truly international flavors.

Tickets cost the following: $40 (Sister Cities members), $60 (non-members) and  $20 for students.

The evening will feature music and a silent auction, whose proceeds will be donated to Sister Cities of Louisville.
