The Kite's Nest Alimentary Feast

Join us for for the Kite's Nest Alimentary Feast, a convivial culinary event at Basilica Hudson featuring an intimate farm-to-table meal prepared by expert chef and Co-Director, Nicole Lobue, a creative silent auction and live music.

Kite's Nest is a learning resource center dedicated to curiosity and inquiry, and committed to creating an extraordinary environment for children to learn, play, and grow in Hudson. We believe that by supporting children to develop a passion for learning, we are building a generation of young adults with the skills, abilities, and confidence to create meaningful lives.

Our multidisciplinary, project-based workshops serve a wide range of children and families in and around Hudson, and have explored the history of language, traditional wooden boat-building, the art of making potions, media-making, creative writing, cartography, agroecology, culinary arts, and more. Whether we're sailing a handmade raft on the Hudson River or interviewing people on the street, we are generating experiences together that spark children's innate curiosity and enable their love of learning to thrive.

Proceeds from the event will enable Kite's Nest to grow by increasing the amount of free and low-cost programming we offer, strengthening our relationships with local partner organizations, and ensuring that our programs serve the children in Hudson who most need inspiring and hands-on engagement with learning.
