Chefs Evening, Southeastern Louisiana University Foundation’s largest annual fundraising event, returns Sunday, March 24.
Chefs Evening features the region’s best chefs, caterers and bakers for a one-of-a-kind culinary experience, made possible in part by Platinum Sponsor First Guaranty Bank.
Guests can savor delicious food, sip tasty concoctions, place bids in the silent auction, and even toast with Southeastern’s new President and First Lady, Dr. William and Misty Wainwright.
Vice President for University Advancement Wendy Lauderdale said they are excited to join the Wainwright’s at their residence for their first President’s Toast, and she called Chefs Evening the perfect way to get connected with the campus community and students.
For sponsors and VIPS, the evening will begin at 4 p.m. with the President’s Toast, an intimate gathering at the President’s residence featuring exclusive hors d’oeuvres from the chefs at Cena and wine from the Wainwright’s personal wine selections. At the toast’s conclusion, attendees will make their way to Southeastern’s Pennington Center for the main Chefs Evening event, which lasts from 5:30 to 8 p.m.
