New Food/Arts program launches this Fall at Fremont Abbey Arts Center featuring Monday classes and many food/arts events throughout October-December. Made possible in part by City of Seattle Department of Neighborhoods Matching Fund grant.
Grow your brain on the arts (and fuel it with healthy “super foods”) at the Abbey this Fall! FREE food classes & events including music, visual arts, dance and great community based learning with neighbors and new friends.
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
SUPERFOODS: Join chefs, teaching artists, neighbors and friends to learn how to create a week’s worth of different meals using nutrient rich “superfoods” to accent other healthy food while your kids learn “Brain Meets Body” dance & creative visual arts. Parents & kids will learn about food briefly at the beginning and end of each class session. This class will be focusing on affordable and organic produce when possible. Some food supplies and tastings at every class provided free of charge!
Parents will learn to cook in the new Abbey commercial kitchen with professional chefs and assistants while kids learn dance, visual arts, and other fun creativity connected to food & health in other larger rooms at the Fremont Abbey Arts Center.
The cooking class will focus on discovering new foods and finding fun & easy ways to involve “super foods” into healthy & organic meals.
