History has a way of keeping its secrets… but on Friday November 13th, it’s up to you to uncover the truth.

Join us at the North Carolina Museum of Art for an immersive Art Heist Dinner coinciding with the opening of the Ancient Nubia: Excavating Treasures of the Nile. Inspired by the mysteries, discoveries, and extraordinary history of Ancient Nubia, this one-of-a-kind evening will transport guests into the past, where they’ll be tasked with uncovering secrets buried for centuries.

Examine the evidence, decipher clues, question what you think you know, and put your instincts to the test as a mystery buried by time begins to surface.

Along the way, enjoy expertly crafted drinks and an unforgettable multicourse dinner inspired by the evening’s journey. With each course, new discoveries will bring you closer to the truth. Can you right ancient wrongs before dessert?

Dig into the past. Follow the clues. Uncover the truth.

Last night we found perfect harmony between food, art, and most importantly w**e 🍷

We can’t stop talking about how wonderful Art Inside the Bottle: In Perfect Harmony was! We loved the curator lead tour around the African Gallery, the entertaining and knowledgeable w**e pairing, and of course the amazing food.

Thank you to Doreen Colondres with Vitis House for the expert knowledge of w**e you demonstrated.

Thank you Head Chef Matt of the NCMA Cafe for a wonderful multi course dinner, it was fantastic! We are looking forward to the Fall Cafe Menu next week!

Great Wines & Great Works of Art are Built on Balance 🥂

Join us on September 10th, at the NCMA for an evening exploring how artists and w**emakers pursue harmony through contrast, texture, structure, and emotion. From the museum galleries to the w**e glass, discover how individual elements come together to create something greater than the sum of their parts.

Inspired by the Museum's African collection, this immersive experience pairs five thoughtfully crafted dinner courses with five carefully selected w**es that celebrate the dialogue of African and American w**emaking. Through side-by-side comparisons of iconic grape varieties and w**e styles, we'll discover how acidity, fruit, tannin, texture, color, and composition work together to create elegance, expression, and harmony.

A first look, framed like a work of art. 🍂

There is something undeniably romantic about an autumn wedding at the NCMA. Sculptural architecture, sweeping landscapes, rich seasonal color, and galleries filled with inspiration create a setting that feels both timeless and entirely your own.

As we step into fall wedding season, we’re dreaming of candlelit tables, golden-hour portraits, thoughtful details, and celebrations designed as beautifully as the art surrounding them.

For couples looking for a wedding venue that feels elevated, unexpected, and effortlessly iconic—the NC Museum of Art is a masterpiece all its own. ✨

We are obsessed with these photos from from Gina & Kyle's wedding.

Some moments become even more meaningful with time. 🤍

Seven years ago, Catering Works had the incredible honor of catering a fundraiser attended by the incomparable Dolly Parton.

Now, as the world mourns the loss of a true icon, we find ourselves looking back on that evening with even more gratitude. Dolly’s talent was legendary, but so were her kindness, generosity, and the joy she brought to so many.

We feel incredibly fortunate that, for one evening, our story crossed paths with hers.

Rest easy, Dolly. Your light will be missed, but never forgotten. ✨
