Don't Miss It! Special Food and Storytelling by Feast Chef Partners, Live Auction, and Special Guest Adriana Janovich sharing from her new book that features Feast!

5 Years of Feast... so many stories to share and celebrate! The impact has been incredible...

  • Over 110 different Chef Partner Families have cooked with us, built new career & business skills, and shared culture with Spokane -- with family members and chef helpers this represents several hundred people!
  • Over $1.3 Million in take-home profits have gone to the former refugee and immigrant families who have cooked in our restaurant and catering programs!
  • Hundreds more people have been given vital support (jobs/housing/English/connections) by Table Time, the drop-in Community Resource Navigation program housed in our dining room, which was launched in late 2022.

Don't miss a chance for us to gather the Feast Family around the table! We are celebrating the stories behind the food from our first 5 years of Feast World Kitchen -- and specifically celebrating a few Feast Chef Partners who are branching out separately as new food entrepreneurs in Spokane! This special event is also our Spring Fundraiser, and our growing programs could greatly use a financial boost! We're excited to welcome a mix of Feast regulars and those who may be excited to become new financial underwriters of our work! Invite your friends so they can learn about our work! We will include a live auction featuring several of our Chef Partners offering private group catering events as a way of supporting the fundraising effort! Come bid for a chance to host a very special international meal of your own!

Plus: it's also a book release party! Our friend Adriana Janovich, longtime former food writer for the Spokesman-Review, will also share a bit from her newly released book "Unique Eats & Eateries of Spokane!" She is the granddaughter of Polish refugees who have their own story of how food helped them establish themselves in the U.S. Each household gets a signed copy of Adriana's new book "Unique Eats and Eateries of Spokane" as part of your event ticket!

NOTES:

-Your signed copy of the book and all food is covered by your ticket; special drinks (mocktails, cocktails, beer, and wine) will be available for purchase!

-We will include delicious options for Vegan & Gluten Free guests
