Designed to unite food, philanthropy, culture, and community, SouthEATS Austin will highlight Southeast Asian culture to raise awareness for asylum seekers and refugees currently displaced in Bangkok, Thailand. Courageous Kitchen, a 501c(3) non-profit focusing on food education, nutrition, and housing, will be hosting a food festival in partnership with the acclaimed Barr Mansion, an award winning venue and The Knot best-of-weddings hall of famer.
In addition to the food festival, there will be live music, cocktails, a Thai-inspired street market and food demos by local and celebrity chefs. We’re also pleased to announce guest speakers from the refugee community, Chef Yia Vang and Sedrick Murhula who will share their triumphant stories of their journey to freedom. If you’re interested in sponsoring, volunteering, vending, or participating in the cook-off, please email us at: southeats.austin@gmail.com
