Market Square, located in the center of downtown Knoxville, was the site of the city’s original marketplace, established in 1854. With the Art Fair, Market Square’s identity as the city’s communal centerpiece carries on into the 21^st century.

A little bit about Rich Arnold, Winemaker for Robert Mondavi…
Rich Arnold heads the production of the Robert Mondavi Winery white wines which includes Chardonnay, Fume Blanc, and Moscato d’Oro. As a member of the winemaking team for more than 30 years, Rich has been extensively involved in both wine production and research.

Rich graduated from the University of California, Davis, with both a Bachelor of Science degree in fermentation science and Master’s degree in food science with a sensory science specialty. Prior to joining Robert Mondavi Winery in 1974, he worked at the University of California, Davis, and was later part of a sensory group, headed by UCD Professor Ann Noble, that developed the original Wine Aroma Wheel. His scientific background and extensive winemaking experience provide the expertise for his innovative research at Robert Mondavi Winery.

A little bit about Lisa King and Elizabeth King from GAC’s “Farm Kings”…
The Kings raise chickens, pigs, and cows, and grow 40 varieties of produce on their 150 acres. The family owns a bakery and the Freedom Farms Cafe that serves home cooked meals and sells Lisa’s prepared foods.

Lisa King, better known as “Mama Bear Lisa”, is the matriarch and glue of the King family. When her time in the kitchen is done, she’s off to the fields to cut flowers and arrange them for weddings and parties.

Elizabeth King, nicknamed “Bitty” by her brothers, is the second oldest and only girl in the King family. After spending every year working on the farm, Elizabeth took a year off to get some distance from the stress of the family business and to attend the Pittsburg Culinary Institute.
