What
Both culinary volunteers (kitchen experience required) and non-culinary volunteers are needed for this weekend-long event – presented by NYU and ICE alumna Cricket Azima’s company The Creative Kitchen.

Culinary opportunities involve working beside well-known chefs, kitchen prep work, assisting chefs during cooking demonstrations, assisting children during hands-on cooking classes, setting up the pop-up kitchen operation, and more.
Non-culinary opportunities include coordinating attendees, escorting VIPs and chefs to demonstrations, ticket handling, and more.
