Evening with Exeter’s Chefs: Top cooks showcase culinary talents for Scholarship Fund
EXETER — Exeter’s finest chefs will showcase their cuisine at a fundraising event to raise funds for local scholarships.
The Evening with Exeter’s Chefs, hosted by the Exeter Area Scholarship Fund, will take place on Dec. 5 at the Exeter Town Hall.
The event features five of Exeter’s top chefs, who will offer one to two items that give a flavor of their cuisine. Participants include Lee Frank of Otis, Paul Callahan of Vino e Vivo, Tim O’Brien of Cornicello, Bradley Wallace of Sawbelly and Margaret Forêt with her students from the Seacoast School of Technology Culinary Arts Program. Wine and beer from local establishments will be available along with desserts.
The Exeter Area Scholarship is pleased to partner again with TEAM, who will feature live music and donate a portion of all sales from the art gallery to the scholarship fund.
The Exeter Area Scholarships Fund has proven to change lives. The fund is different because organizers are passionate about providing educational opportunities to local students who’ve been overlooked for traditional scholarships as well as those with challenging backgrounds and unique circumstances. In addition to providing scholarships, they regularly communicate with scholarship recipients and are always there for them to offer advice and support. They sponsored two students this year and hope the generous donations from guests at this year’s event will help them assist even more students next year.
