Big Band in the Back Room at the Culinary Institute

2012
On Saturday, January 12th, 2013 from 6 to 11 pm, come to the Culinary Institute of America for a night that’ll take you back to a place where depression took over and alcohol was prohibited, but didn’t stop men and women in 1920s from having a blast. This event will be filled with excitement, swing dancing, and a live music from the grand orchestra “The Big Band Sound,” as we swing our way back into the era. This event will be hosted by The Culinary Institute of America’s senior class.  
Big Band SoundThe night will start with a reception in Roth Hall featuring specialty cocktails, beer, wine, passed hors d’Oeurves, and a silent auction. The proceeds will benefit The Miles of Hope Breast Cancer Foundation and The CIA Side Towel Scholarship Fund.
After the reception, guests will then be invited into Farquharson Hall to enjoy a four-course dinner, beverages, and live music. Only 140 seats available, so get your tickets and swing yourself back in time and remember to “speakeasy.”
  The Culinary Institute of America is located at 1946 Campus Drive, Hyde Park, NY [map].
