Kitchen a la Mode

Bring your lunch break to the kitchen. Chef Erin shows you simple, practical ways to turn everyday ingredients into something worth savoring — think smarter knife work, quick sauces, and flavor tricks that make weeknight meals taste restaurant-fresh. Sit back and watch her cook, then dig into the dish yourself. This is a demonstration-style class (no hands-on cooking required) — just come hungry and ready to learn.
Price: $20 per person, lunch included.
About the Chef: A graduate of Muhlenberg College and L’Academie de Cuisine, Chef Erin has worked for years as a private chef preparing meals for local families and teaching adult cooking classes. I created the culinary curriculum and was a culinary instructor at Far Brook School. Currently, I teach both cooking classes and English language classes at the Millburn Library.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/169030/t/tickets" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>

WHEN HEALTHCARE COSTS RISE, WHO GETS LEFT BEHIND?
Join NJPAC's Standing in Solidarity series for Breaking Barriers to Affordable Healthcare, a free community event bringing together healthcare professionals, advocates and community members for an important conversation about healthcare affordability, access and equity.&nbsp;The Standing in Solidarity film series is sponsored by the PSEG Foundation
Why should you attend? Because healthcare challenges don't just affect individuals. They impact our families, neighbors and entire communities. Whether you're navigating healthcare costs, caring for a loved one or simply want to better understand the resources available in New Jersey, this conversation offers valuable insights and an opportunity to ask important questions.
The program features a screening of The Healthcare Divide, a FRONTLINE documentary examining healthcare inequities and how hospitals' pursuit of profits can put care for low-income patients at risk.
Following the film, healthcare and policy experts will explore why healthcare costs continue to rise, what can be done to address affordability and which New Jersey resources can help individuals and families access quality care.
Featured panelists include:
<ul><li>Moderator: Deborah Visconi, President and CEO of Bergen New Bridge Medical Center</li><li>Rochelle Evans, RN, Healthcare Foundation of the Oranges</li><li>Iris Jones, New Jersey Department of Health, Division of Family Health Services</li><li>Dr. Arnold Williams, RWJBarnabas Health Behavioral Health Center in Toms River</li></ul>
In partnership with Dodge Poetry, the evening will open with a special poetry performance by Ray Jane, a Brooklyn-based spoken word artist and author of Black Like That.
Your health matters. Your community matters. Your voice belongs in this conversation.
Join us to become more informed, discover available resources and take part in a meaningful discussion about making healthcare more accessible for everyone.
