In conjunction with the Osceola Art Festival
celebration on Broadway, the heart of Kissimmee's
Downtown, Signature's Friday Wine Down Dinner will celebrate Spanish
Artists. A number of great artists have lived and worked in Spain. Among
the most famous are El Greco, Diego Velasquez, Francisco Goya, Salvador
Dali, and Pablo Picasso, one of the most prolific artists in history
and a major figure in 20th century art. Chef Steve Fratto has used each
artist as an inspiration for individual courses in our
