Melissa Clark
Ready for the holidays? Let’s get it together…together!
New York Times food writer and columnist Melissa Clark will teach and inspire us as we all look toward the next topsy turvy event of 2020: the holiday season. Melissa is known for her simple, creative solutions to entertaining conundrums, and there is no doubt that she will offer easy and effective tips to make this year’s celebrations feel special. In fact, signing up will jump start your meal planning right away, since a copy of Melissa’s latest cookbook, Dinner in French, will be yours when you register!
In addition, we will all get an edge on Thanksgiving prep by hearing from Bernard Janssen, Chef and Culinary Program Manager at Zwilling, who will showcase basic knife skills, explain which knife to use for what, and teach us how to keep our knives in excellent shape.
We can’t imagine a better way to get fired up about holiday preparation than spending an hour or so with these two culinary masters. And best of all, your own family gatherings will be elevated knowing you have helped the talented students of Westchester Community College with direct support of both student scholarships and also our on-campus food pantry.

Virtual Wine & Cheese Event - June 25th, 2020
Renowned sommelier Tim Kopec will teach us about three world-class French wines, sourced from his private collection--a sommelier's treasure trove!
Tim was the wine director of, and a partner in, Manhattan’s much-missed three-star restaurant Veritas, where he won the James Beard Foundation Award for Outstanding Wine Service. Now a founding partner of Private Cellar Selections, which sources wine for restaurants, corporations and private collections.
Enjoy a tasting package featuring 3 bottles from Tim’s private collection plus gourmet cheese and crackers selected by Second Mouse Cheese shop in Pleasantville to complement the wines during the Zoom event.
Cost of tasting package is $175--this includes $125 wine and cheese for two, plus a $50 donation to WCC (or follow along without the featured wines by registering for the Zoom link alone!) Tasting package to be dropped at your doorstep* (touchless delivery) the day prior to the event.

During this time of COVID-19, our students need your support more than ever. 100% of funds raised from this event will benefit our scholarships and on-campus food pantry.
