Event season is in full swing here at The Hermosa Inn, as well as throughout the Valley, making it hard to choose from the array of happenings. But with this list, we’re hoping to make those decisions a little easier. Here’s a brief synopsis with more details below:

1. We’re throwing an Aarti Paarti with Cooking Channel Host and Food Network Star Aarti Sequeira

2. You can hang out with artist Jill Friedberg for the price of brunch on LON’s gorgeous patio.

3. There will be a Pop-Up Wine Dinner but you need to join “The Inn Crowd” to find out when and who the winemaker will be!

4. Learn how to cook an entire holiday meal on the grill with Chef Ducas.

5. Learn to paint like Van Gogh at Mimosa Mornings with Carrie Curran Art Studio.

6. Mix rum cocktails like a master mixologist with Spirit Guide Travis Nass.

7. Say thanks over Thanksgiving dinner at LON’s.

Any of those sound good? Here are the details:
