This is a new DCCK program to bring more of our culinary community into the kitchen to communicate directly with the students. Please email Cindy by Nov. 1 at [email protected] to express your interest. Liz will take it from there. It is especially rewarding to visit the class in this capacity and then to follow up by attending the same class graduation. Friday, December 1, 2 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Memorial Service for Marianne Ali. Amphitheater (Concourse Level) of the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center (1300 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC).
