Those of us who can’t eat gluten might want to make a trip to the inaugural Gluten-Free Culinary Summit this weekend at Copper Mountain Resort in the Colorado Rockies. The conference will feature workshops, cooking and baking demonstrations, and lectures by renowned chefs.

Hosted by Marc David, the author of The Slow Down Diet, the event boasts presenters such as Lee Tobin of Whole Foods, Lori Sobelson of Bob’s Red Mill Natural Foods, vegetarian chef Ron Pickarski, and vegan cookbook author Lorna Sass. So while the entire conference won’t be vegan-centric, it sounds like a fair amount of offerings will be available for those of us trying to avoid animal products as well as gluten.

Registration ends Wednesday, so call 303-368-9990 or sign up online today.

UPDATE: According to a rep for the Summit, there will be many vegan versions of dishes throughout the weekend (and others can be veganized), and at the special event dinner on Saturday night, about five different dinners will cater specifically to vegans. Way to go, GF Summit!
