This year’s event will take place on Saturday, June 17.

“For more than 20 years, Evonik has been supporting our hometown creative arts culture through the Taste of Tippecanoe and we are proud to continue that tradition of community involvement,” said Clive Whiteside, vice president and site manager of Evonik’s Tippecanoe Laboratories.

“Evonik is a leader on many levels.

We would not be the thriving organization or region without them.”
