Taste of the World Cooking Demonstration & Tasting Events–A Cultural Wellness Series
We are excited to announce that with support from the Common Roots Foundation, we are hosting a NEW Taste of the World Cooking Demonstration & Tasting Cultural Wellness series.
Our Taste of the World events foster community empowerment and cultural understanding. They are a testament to food’s power to unite people, bridge cultural divides, and create a more inclusive and equitable society through culinary artistry and unwavering support for community initiatives.
August: Summer Fresh Flavors with Sunhee’s Farm & Kitchen and Jinah Ahn, Owner and Founder sharing her immigrant story and demonstrating how to make kimchee.
September: Nourishing Japan–Premiere Film Screening & Discussion with simple Japanese food tasting inspired by the film. Alexis Agliano Sanborn: Filmmaker, “Nourishing Japan” and Ambassador (ret.) Donna Welton: U.S. Diplomat and Asian specialist shared their stories of living in Japan.
Taste of the World is a fundraiser for the International Center of the Capital Region, whose nonprofit mission is to foster professional, cultural, and social exchange, as well as global thought leadership, in the Greater Capital Region. Thanks to fundraisers like Taste of the World, the Center is connecting our Community to the World!
And this is just the beginning! We’re cooking up more Taste of the World experiences to nourish minds, hearts, and bellies. In the coming months, thanks to the Common Roots Foundation, we will be hosting additional Taste of the World Cooking Demonstration & Tasting Cultural Wellness events in collaboration with our community partners.
