Celebrate Local Culinary Talent at Ivy Tech's Hospitality Showcase on May 9

Ivy Tech Community College in Bloomington is preparing to host its annual Hospitality Showcase to honor its hospitality administration students. The event is scheduled for May 9, from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., at The Yellowwood restaurant and patio on campus. This showcase serves as the final project for the students, highlighting their efforts throughout their course.

Over the last eight weeks, the students have focused on improving their culinary skills, specifically in American Regional cuisine at The Yellowwood. At the showcase, each student will prepare and serve a selected menu item, demonstrating their individual contributions to The Yellowwood and the event's menu.

The showcase will include hors d'oeuvres, various food stations, chef demonstrations, and a dessert station from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. A ceremony to recognize graduates and students will take place on the patio from 6:30 to 7:00 p.m. The event will end with a buffet and self-serve food and beverages until 7:30 p.m.

Guests can also tour Ivy Tech’s baking and culinary labs during the event. These tours and demonstrations will offer insights into the educational facilities that support the students' culinary training.
