Wine tasting, art, live music and food will be on the menu at the Mercer Island Chamber of Commerce-presented event.

The event will feature 20-plus Washington state wineries each pouring two or more of their wines under tents, and juried artists showing and selling their paintings, sculptures and more in booths. Wines poured will be available for purchase at a 10% discount.

Several food trucks will offer everything from snacks to full meals, and two vendors will be selling sweet treats. Attendees can also play yard games at the event.
