The much anticipated Atlantic Cape Restaurant Gala is now in its 39th year, and with the theme of "Immersion", guests will be immersed in all of the fine culinary options from both the school and over 45 area restaurants and businesses.
These events are crucial to help students follow their passion, as over the years, with the support of the community and sponsors, this gala raised over $3.5 million for scholarships who attend the Academy of Culinary Arts (ACA). So please get your tickets before it's sold out.
There will be dinner, cocktails, dessert, dancing and a special honor will go to the Mullock family of Cape May and retired Academy of Culinary Arts Dean Chef, Kelly McClay.
Thursday March 31, 2022 6 - 9:30 p.m. Harrah's Waterfront Conference Center, Atlantic City
