The meal will be prepared by Michael Bernardo of Cafe Mio, Kevin London of the Farmhouse Restaurant, Culinary Institute of American chefs, and local foodies. Suggested donations will be taken at the door. General admission is $10; $5 for students, farmers, and kids under 12. The dinner is being held in the Multi-Purpose-Room of Bard’s Campus Center.
