The annual Conway Chocolate Walk will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. in downtown Conway. Tickets are $18 in advance; $20 the day of the event. Space is limited and tickets usually sell out, so you might want to buy your tickets ASAP at http://conwayalive.com/. During the Chocolate Walk, you can pick up handmade chocolate treats from 30 + participating businesses. Since you may not be able to eat them all in one day, they’ll give you a take-home bag so you can enjoy what you can’t eat later.
