In association with Tucson Originals & TWS Premium Appliance Center

We’re partying for the Cure – and you’re invited!
Join us Thursday July 21 for an evening of delicious food,
outstanding wine, and demos from some of Tucson’s top chefs
… all in aid of breast cancer.

Every year Cook for the Cure, presented by KitchenAid, raises funds for breast cancer with parties held all over the country.
We’re joining in the fun with a four-hour celebration.
Meet some of Tucson’s top chefs, learn about some select wines, get free entry into a draw for kitchen appliances, and Cool Off With Komen*. Stay for a little while, or linger as long as you like. We hope to see you there!

The time: Thursday July 21, 4pm-8pm
The place: The stunning showroom and kitchen at TWS Premium Appliance Center, 4229 E. Speedway Blvd, Tucson (just east of Columbus).

The chefs: Participating chefs, to present throughout the evening, include: Ramiro Scavo, chef/proprietor of Pasco Kitchen & Lounge; Maria Mazon, chef/proprietor of Boca; Renee Kreager, chef/proprietor of Renee’s Organic Oven (formerly Eclectic Pizza).

And all we ask is this: You know how you’d usually bring a bottle of wine or a gift for your party host? For this one we’re asking you to skip the gifts and instead bring a donation of $10 per person to Susan G. Komen for the Cure Southern Arizona. Help us in our mission to end breast cancer forever.

*This marks the kick-off of the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Southern Arizona Cool Off With Komen campaign, a series of fun indoor events to help our supporters beat the summer heat. For more info, keep checking our website at www.komensaz.org

For more information on Tucson Originals, see http://www.tucsonoriginals.com/, “Preserving Tucson’s Culinary Sense of Place…”

Having a sister-in-law and female friend who both survived breast cancer, and a mother-in-law who did not and died at age 61, I well know the importance of these Susan G. Komen events. Please support them if you can.
