A Taste of Tuscany, A Toast to Hope Participatory Dinner Party

  • The Kitchen 231 East Livingston Avenue Columbus, OH, 43215 United States (map)

Join us at The Kitchen for a summer evening inspired by the rustic beauty and bold flavors of Italy. A Taste of Tuscany, A Toast to Hope is more than a meal - it’s a hands-on culinary experience where guests cook, dine, and toast together in celebration of connection, community, and a cause that matters. 

This special participatory dinner party supports GoNormGo, a team raising funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Visionaries of the Year campaign. A portion of each ticket goes directly toward advancing cancer research and treatment through LLS. Gather around our farmhouse tables, sip Tuscan wines, and help us raise a glass - and vital funds - for hope and healing.

Please note, our signature Participatory Dining Experiences are guided, experiential, and collaborative meal preparation and dining events. They are not a cooking class and you will not be taught complex techniques or how to prepare a full meal. Instead, you and 2-6 other guests will be responsible for preparing one recipe or course together in our communal kitchen before sitting down to enjoy your well-deserved meal. All cooking ability levels are welcome as our staff will guide you through basic safety and preparation instructions.

A full bar of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverage selections will be available for purchase at the event. Our bar features both local and domestic offerings of beer, wine, and classic & signature cocktails.

We encourage guests to read the FAQs on our website or reach out to us with any questions regarding the experience. Please indicate any dietary restrictions in the checkout notes section and we will do our best to make a suitable substitution. If you are coming with a group and buying separate tickets, indicate their names in the checkout notes section and we will do our best to seat your group together. Please contact us directly for any changes to your reservation. Let’s get cooking!
