As FIG is a woman-owned company, we felt it was only appropriate that
our first hosted event of the year celebrates WOMEN. We're celebrating
IWD by recognizing the 81st birthday of Soviet Cosmonaut, Valentina
Vladimirovna Tereshkova, who was the first woman in space. And, we're
doing it in the only way we know how - with lots of food, drinks, and
music! The first part of the night will be family-style dinner
inspired by Russian cuisine - starting with zakuski, a first course
consisting of some of our favorite winter items like cheeses, meats,
pickled vegetables, and deviled eggs. Then diving in to a hearty meal
utilizing some of favorite producers.
Here's our Russian inspired, but locally produced menu. We can
definitely accommodate vegetarians and since there is a wide variety
there may be enough for vegans and gluten-free folks as well, but
there will be no substitutions.
Throughout the event we will be THINKING LOCALLY BY RECOGNIZING SOME
OF THE AMAZING WOMEN DOING S**t in CHICAGO. We will be giving away 10
tickets to notable WOMEN WHO WILL BE SEATING THROUGHOUT THE ROOM AND
WILL DEFINITELY SPUR INPIRING CONVERSATIONS. A portion of the proceeds
will benefit Urban Growers Collective
[http://urbangrowerscollective.org/] a new non-profit dedicated to
empowering Chicago youth through food, healing, and art launched by
two amazing women.
The second part of the night will be a full-on dance party (with
snacks and drinks)! If you come to dinner you are automatically
invited to stay for dancing. Or just come to dance with us - whatever
your age.
