Chef Chairs Kevin Rathbun and Gerry Klaskala,
along with Co-Chairs Nan Street and Carmen Titelman, invite Atlantans to mix
and mingle with local chefs and fellow foodies during the 16thannual Party in the Kitchen benefit at The Stave Room at American Spirit Works in
support of Open Hand Atlanta. On Thursday, September 26 at 7 p.m., guests will enjoy delicious fare
from more than 20 of Atlanta's finest restaurants, including Aria, Rathbun's, Local
Three Kitchen & Bar, The General Muir and Table & Main, as well as hand-crafted
cocktails provided by top mixologists.
Open Hand Atlanta hosts the culinary-focused event annually to raise much-needed funds to support its programs which provide access to home-delivered, health-promoting meals as well as nutrition education to Atlantans living with or disabled by chronic disease, homebound seniors and at-risk youth and families. As guests enjoy food prepared by some of Atlanta's finest chefs, the event will also include a live auction with opportunities to win incredible one-of-a-kind experiences, such as exclusive in-home dinners prepared by renowned chefs Kevin Rathbun and Gerry Klaskala, as well as a silent auction which will feature an array of luxury items including travel packages, entertainment opportunities and fine dining experiences.
Open Hand will also host a Patron Party at the Spanx Rooftop Terrace a few weeks prior to the main event which will provide another opportunity to showcase some of Atlanta's most divine bites as well as a sneak peek of the live and silent auctions. The Patron Party event will take place on Friday, September 13 at 7 p.m.
Tickets for the main event begin at $250 and include access to unlimited food tastings and an open bar.
