Join us before the movie at 5:30 p.m. for a special free reception, featuring complimentary light fare with gourmet cheese, fruit, and a few appetizers and breads from James Beard’s cookbooks. The film begins at 6:30 p.m. Stick around after the movie for an exciting panel discussion featuring three local chefs in the community!
Experience a century of food through the life of James Beard (1903-85). Dubbed the “Dean of American Cookery” by The New York Times, Beard was a Portland, Oregon native who loved and celebrated the bounty of the Pacific Northwest. He spoke of the importance of localism and sustainability long before those terms had entered the vernacular. An author, journalist, television celebrity and teacher, Beard helped to pioneer and expand the food media industry into the billion-dollar business it is today.
Warren Searls, an AARP volunteer, and Ashley Blanton of UA-Pulaski Tech Culinary, promoted the event during a live appearance May 10 on KARK/Channel 4. Click below to play the video:
