On Saturday, October 5th, from 3:30-7:00pm, the Island Harvest Chili Cook-off and the Artstock Art Market will bring a little something for everyone to Brickworks.

  • Competing for best chili at the event will be:
  • Coho Restaurant
  • Pablito’s Taqueria
  • Cask and Schooner
  • Ernie’s Cafe
  • Mike’s Café
  • Friday Harbor High School’s Food for Thought Program
    (2013 Chili Champ back to defend their title!).

Each of these fine food establishments will create a unique chili for folks to taste, including a vegetarian option and corn bread. A cider press will be on hand to make your own fresh apple cider, and there will be a fire pit to make your own s’mores with homemade marshmallows. A beer garden will feature local wine, beer and hard cider.

The public is invited to judge the best chili, with the crowning of the chili champ at 5:00p.m.

Tickets for the chili meal are $15 for an adult and $10 for a child under 12. Tickets can be purchased at the Saturday SJI Farmers Market at the Sweet Earth Farm Booth, at Market Chef and online at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/471072 . The ticket covers ample chili, fresh apple cider, and s’mores.

The Artstock Art Market in the Brickworks building is free and will feature a variety of local artists selling their creations. Live music will be provided by local musicians, Teddy Deane (3:30-5:00pm) and the Florino Brothers (5:00-7:00pm).

Artstock 2013 will also feature a Gallery Tour around Friday Harbor. The Gallery Tour features two new galleries, Gallery 9 and WM McCauley Gallery, and long-time Artstock favorites, Island Studios and Waterworks Gallery. All participating galleries will stay open until 7:00 pm, offering special receptions with music and refreshment. Artstock is sponsored by Earthbox Inn & Spa and the Port of Friday Harbor.

The Island Harvest Chili Cook-off and Artstock are part of the Great Island Grown Festival and Savor the San Juans.
