Downtown Y Teaching Kitchen

The kitchen is the heart of a home- and it’s the heart of our Y! We believe that healthy living goes beyond the gym, and that’s why we created a unique space where our community can gather to take cooking classes, participate in demonstrations, and connect over food. We partner with local culinary & nutrition professionals for programs that help you eat healthy, try foods from around the world, prepare budget-friendly family meals, and helps people of all ages to grow their skills in the kitchen. Find upcoming Teaching Kitchen events below.
