Celebrate the market community at the CUESA Spring Breakfast ~ June 7
On June 7, CUESA's Dacor teaching kitchen in the North Arcade will be transformed into the setting for our annual breakfast gathering. Come delight in Spring's abundance and the people who bring it to us each week. A market seller will be at each table to share stories about her or his business. There are three seatings--9:00, 10:00 and 11:00 am. Tickets are $25 per person ($15 for children 2-12) and proceeds benefit CUESA’s education programs. We sincerely hope you can join us!
