40 food trucks and only five awards? What is a truck to do? The free Food Truck Wars will figure it out, with tons of food, live music, beer garden, and more. It's happening this Sunday from noon to 6:00pm. 

This Sunday, let jazz vocalist Whitney James enchant you at the Timucua Whitehouse while mingling and browsing art by Nathalie Chikhi. Doors open at 7:00pm, free (donations accepted), and BYOB.
