SSFA – Cooking for the Arts

March 24, 2023 – Sarasota

Southside School Foundation for the Arts’ (SSFA) is hosting their first annual Cooking for the Arts event chaired by Molly Klauber Biter and Sepi Ackerman.  The event will take place on March 31, 2023 at 6:30pm in the ballroom at Michael’s On East (1212 East Avenue S.).  Over 200 guests will be hands-on cooking four courses for their fellow table mates and will be directed by local celebrity chefs, Phil Mancini and Jamil Pineda. The live auction will include tickets to Taylor Swift concert, Ed Sheeran concert, a wine dinner at Michael’s Wine Cellar, and more.

SSFA’s funding provides many programs at Southside Elementary, including the dance and performing arts program, the annual theater production, and other arts and cultural engagements for the students. Most recently, we organized an afterschool performance by The Sarasota Opera, funded a workshop with Asolo Rep teaching artists and actors for the fifth graders, and coordinated an afterschool costume design workshop.

Tickets are $225/person and there are many sponsorship opportunities. For more information about the SSFA program and this event, please go to www.southsidefoundation.org. SSFA is a 501(c)(3) organization
