The 9th anniversary celebration of the Jacques Pépin Foundation brought together a community that believes in something bigger than a beautiful table. Because of that shared commitment, more individuals will have the opportunity to build skills, prepare for employment, and discover what is possible for them in the kitchen and beyond.
An inspiring presentation from Maddrey Goode, Executive Director of the New England Center for Culinary Arts and Technology and a wonderful speech from Andrew Zimmern on mentorship reminded everyone why this work matters.




You will spot Jacques Pépin and many familiar faces in the photos all supporting the shared belief in the power of culinary education.
