Palates to Palettes is coming back!

• L to r: Leslie Grace (Neb) , Deva Watson (St. Peters) Matt Evans (SP) and Natalie Caitin-St. Louis (Nebinger).

Two Philadelphia K-8 schools are collaborating this year to bring Palates to Palettes to their students: George W. Nebinger Elementary School and St. Peter’s School.

The two near neighbors are fielding a team of 30 kids to explore the intersection of fine art and culinary masterpieces. The kids will work together for six months to visit the Philadelphia Museum of Art and a fine dining restaurant to learn about careers in art, design, culinary arts and hospitality management.

The program this year is possible through the generosity of several wonderful partners:

• Bistrot La Minette,
• COOK

• Drexel University’s School of Culinary Arts & Food Science and Hospitality Management
• Barbara Bassett, Education Curator at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and
• Photographer Jason Varney
