We are offering this class both at 5:30 PM and 7:30 PM on Tuesday, November 5th!
In this hands-on session, participants will learn the art of baking focaccia while discovering the rich stories behind food culture and traditions. Together, we'll knead, shape, and top the dough with fragrant olive oil, herbs, and other delicious ingredients. As the bread bakes, we'll explore how food connects us to our heritage, family, and shared memories. This session offers a unique opportunity to create something delicious while engaging in meaningful conversation about the role of food in our lives, in moments of joy and pain.
This class is not eligible for discount codes.
