What?

Experience the warmth and wonder of Christina Kent Early Childhood Center's signature fundraiser—an intimate evening under the stars on our beloved playground, nestled beside our 125-year-old schoolhouse. Crayons & Canapés brings together three local chefs in a spirited culinary competition, live music, donated beer and wine, and generous small bites—all included with the cost of your ticket, at this exclusive 21+ event.

Your support means: 

  • Affordable, accessible, and accredited child care for economically diverse families 

  • An award winning nutrition program with home cooked meals and locally sourced foods 

  • A new school that will address the need for high quality infant and toddler care
