Pink Ribbon Cooking Event Coming to Portsmouth
Special cooking event for Breast Cancer Survivors and their family members.

On Saturday June 20, Susan G. Komen Vermont-New Hampshire and Pink Ribbon Cooking will host “When Breast Cancer Invites Itself to Dinner”, a cooking demonstration and tasting designed specifically for breast cancer survivors and co-survivors. Two hugely successful demonstrations have previously been held at Affiliate sponsor, Brook Valley Appliance’s state of the art test kitchen in Manchester, Vermont. We are excited to bring this event to Portsmouth, NH and are grateful to our local NH Race sponsor, the Sheraton Portsmouth Harborside Hotel for donating the space for this special afternoon. The event will start at 11:00 am and run approximately two hours.
Chef Curtiss Hemm, founder of Pink Ribbon Cooking and the former dean of Culinary Arts at the New England Culinary Institute, will prepare simple, healthy and vibrant dishes with a focus on nutrition for breast cancer prevention through survivorship. The day promises to be informative, entertaining, delicious and a perfect combination of celebration and camaraderie.
Pink Ribbon Cooking was founded by Chef Hemm after helping his wife through her own breast cancer journey and, in the process, realizing the importance of diet and nutrition. We are excited to bring together breast cancer survivors for this event. There is no charge for this event, however seats are limited. We invite all breast cancer survivors and co-survivors to join us on June 20th. Please email costrom@vtnhkomen.org if you are interested in attending.
