Hands-On Cooking and Cultural Cuisine Events
Residents love engaging in interactive cooking demonstrations and recipe swaps, where they can share favorite dishes and discover new flavors. Each month, we host cultural cooking nights, celebrating cuisines from around the world.

In March, our Around the World Event takes us to Ireland, where residents can enjoy Irish-inspired dishes, music, and traditions. This fun-filled experience brings the joy of travel right to our community. Learn more about this exciting event here.
