For decades, cooking at the James Beard House has been considered a career milestone for many chefs. In May 2021, we launched the James Beard Fellows program, presented by Capital One, which re-envisions the potential of this historic space as a hub of professional development for talented emerging chefs. After ten months, we have successfully wrapped the pilot of this program with nine incredible alums!

Join us on April 25 as we return to the Beard House to showcase three of our previous Fellows and acclaimed chef Deborah Van Trece for a special four-course dinner.
