| National Ice Cream Day Celebration Missouri History Museum | Sat., July 19 | St. Louis - Forest Park | |
The history of ice cream and the ice cream cone is richer than what meets the tongue. It is thought that ice cream was enjoyed as long ago as 2 B.C. And we know that during the 1904 Worlds Fair in St. Louis, ice cream was sold in an edible pastry cone because of a dish shortage. But... More >> |

| July Meat Class Whole Foods Market | Thu., July 24 | Brentwood | |
From red brick to ragtime to pork-love, some things scream "Arch City." St. Louisans, of course, adore their barbecued pork — others, like Texans, prefer barbecued beef — and we surely do privilege the grilled pork butt. So, if you're a regular barbecue practitioner, why not go back... More >> |

| Art of Food Mad Art Gallery | Sat., July 26 | St. Louis - Soulard/Benton Park | |
Some artists may find inspiration in the human form or the outdoors, but not Ms. Day. She sees the beauty in bacon, the art in asparagus, the splendor in spaghetti. Every meal to her is a wondrous thing of magnificence, just primed for the artist's brush. And she's not alone. Or at least she... More >> |

| Old Time Music Fête Cahokia Courthouse State Historic Site | Sun., July 27 | East St. Louis/Cahokia | |
With all of the electronic devices that you've integrated into your everyday life, it's a good idea to unplug once in a while and remember that you can survive even after your cell phone gets dropped in the bathtub (again).

| Beer vs. Wine Dinner Sheraton Clayton Plaza | Wed., July 30 | Clayton | |
The Schlafly beers have been training for months. They've been working on getting their heads right, and they've been trying to perfect the smooth finish.

| Starving Artists Barbecue & Open Studios Weekend Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis |
Sat., July 19 more dates/times |
St. Louis - Grand Center | |
Most St. Louis barbecues feature meats slathered in Maulls barbecue sauce and the sounds of a Cardinals game blaring from a nearby radio. There is one annual barbecue, however, where conversation turns away from Lohses curveball and toward matters of aesthetics. The Starving Artists... More >> |

| Whitaker Urban Evening Series St. Louis Place Park | Every week Thursday from Thu., July 10 until Thu., July 24 | St. Louis - North Downtown | |
Instead of complaining about the heat and humidity of St. Louis summers, you need to embrace the elements and spend more time outside.

| Passport Dinners on the Plaza Piper Palm House | Every week Thursday from Thu., July 3 until Thu., July 31 | St. Louis - Tower Grove | |
To travel is to experience other lands, other peoples, other cultures, other foods. Gaining all that understanding is great — but that last one really is the best, isn't it? Who doesn't want to get stuffed on the native dishes of most countries? "Most" because not everyone is good at the... More >> |

| Tropical Moose Kirkwood Farmers' Market | Daily from Sat., May 10 until Mon., September 1 | Kirkwood | |
Global warming is definitely a hot-button topic, and rarely do you ever hear any global-warming pros. Maybe it's the nature of heat most people don't like to sweat. But there's one possible positive feature of the Earth's rising temperature: some cool-weather animals moving south. Now,... More >> |
