With seven courses designed by Space on Ryder Farm kitchen alumni, Kate Eminger, Stephen Sanders, and Scott Andrews, this exclusive event for only 25 guests will be an unforgettable evening to tickle all your senses.

Special guests include playwright Jeanne Dorsey, and director Jackson Gay, currently working with Bechdel Project on the highly anticipated play, THE KIT: Made by Martha (An EST/Sloan commission and developed as part of Bechdel Project's 2022/23 ROO Residency) Arroyo Monfilletto (Bechdel Project FIFE Fellow and Former Play Penn Haas Fellow) along with Bechdel Project's Co-Creative Directors Maria Aparo and Jens Rasmussen will also be joining in the evening's festivities.
