The 15th annual Taste of Bryant, presented by ServiceMaster and First Security Bank along with the Bryant area Chamber of Commerce, was held at The Center at Bishop Park on Thursday night. The event brings together food venders and restaurants from around the Bryant area to make their products available for sampling by the patrons and potential patrons to try. There was also a silent auction for those in attendance to participate in, with gifts and samples from other local businesses made available.
The Taste of Bryant is one of the highlights of the year for the Chamber and the community every summer.
