How Sweet it Is

Fitchburg Art Museum is inviting you to warm up winter with the elixir of true romantics, chocolate, and an explanation of the role the humble cacao bean played in ancient Central and South America at "Food of the Gods: Chocolate Tasting." Explore chocolate from Africa, South America, and the Caribbean, complemented with wines of the world. Tour the Museum to see ceramics from ancient cacoa-worshipping pots from Europe. The event is 7-9 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 21, and costs $45. Visit www.fitchburgartmuseum.org.
