Dothan, AL – The Alabama Tourism Department brings The Art of Alabama Food exhibit to the Dothan Civic Center in Dothan, Oct. 17, 2014 through Nov. 8, 2014. The traveling gallery complements the free “100 Dishes” mobile app, which is based on the department’s popular “100 Dishes To Eat in Alabama Before You Die” brochure. The exhibit is free to the public and will be open Mon.-Fri. 11AM-5PM; extended hours during special events will be posted on our website and via social media.  For a complete schedule, visit www.dothanciviccenter.org or www.dothanalcvb.com.


 


The 36 photographs selected from the “100 Dishes” brochure will entice guests and inform them about some of Alabama’s best local restaurants. Guests will also be invited to download the free mobile app to browse the complete list of 100 dishes. The app takes consumers on a culinary road trip through the state and features Alabama’s most memorable and iconic dishes, restaurants and overall food experiences.


                                                                                               


“With a large pool of culinary talent and innovative restaurants, it’s an exciting time for Alabama food,” says Alabama Tourism Department Director Lee Sentell. “We want to share a taste of that with travelers to Alabama and invite them to take a road trip to experience our unique food culture for themselves.”

More than 24 million travelers spent a combined total of $11 billion in the state in 2013, supporting the jobs of more than 163,000 Alabamians. The agency was created in October 1951 by legislative act to promote travel to and through Alabama. It does this both nationally and internationally. ATD is funded by one-fourth of the 4 percent state lodgings tax collected by hotels, motels, campgrounds and other accommodations.
