Event
Celebrity Kick-Off Party
Food, fashion, fun, and an open bar! will merge in the First Annual Celebrity Kick-Off Party taking place on April 12th, 2007 and launching the month-long national "Restaurants Against Hunger" initiative to support Action Against Hunger, an international not-for-profit organization dedicated to ending hunger.
Attend the VIP Reception and receive a remarkable goodie bag, mingle with culinary and fashion industry celebrities while sipping Champagne and enjoying the delights of food provided by New York's Institute for Culinary Education. VIP ticket price includes general admission.
General admission will include a food tasting from regional restaurants, as well as an open bar that will include ultra-premium microbrews; wines from El Coto de Rioja and Arboleda, and the debut of the "Dan Carro" Chartreuse Cocktail.
Join celebrity auctioneers Guy Black and Ann Tripp as they heat up the runway for our CHEF JACKET FASHION SHOW & AUCTION featuring, among others, culinary celebrities Ming Tsai, Katie Lee Joel, Ted Allen, and Cat Cora and New York design stars Joanna Mastroianni, Malan Breton, Vistoria Bartlett, Zulema Griffin, Diana Eng, and Alyssa Keys from Love Brigade.
In addition, attendees will bid at our silent auction table, hear the beautiful music of African jazz vocalist SOMI, and dance to tunes spun by New York's DJ D-NICE. Music will include selections from Putumayo World Music's upcoming album, PUTUMAYO WORLD PARTY, to be released on April 24th. A portion of Putumayo's proceeds from the sale of this release will support Action Against Hunger. Expect unannounced surprises as well.
Help meet the challenge of world hunger by partying at this event. At Action Against Hunger, more than 90% of all funds raised go directly to lifesaving programs that benefit the world's most vulnerable populations - more than 4 million victims of hunger every year in more than 40 countries.
