Created by our founder, Diane Larché, Family Food Fest Atlanta is a multicultural Father's Day charity fundraiser and food-tasting celebration where we celebrate fathers and men who impact their families and community. The 501.c3 nonprofit Atlanta Culinary Charities, whose mission is to work with boys and girls in after-school programs and on weekends, produces this event each year on Father's Day. This event brings families together in a fun and energetic atmosphere. We have many chefs, cooks, caterers, restaurants, and everyday dads and men displaying their culinary skills and talents. We also have female chefs on hand as well.
During this event, you will sample various foods throughout the day, including special vegan/vegetarian dishes. The Family Food Fest Atlanta festival is for everyone and is open to the entire family. The idea of this family-oriented event is to enjoy some excellent cuisine from well-known chefs, cooks, caterers, and restaurants. With an "all-you-can-eat" admission price you will be able to taste delicious appetizers, entrees, desserts, and beverages. Also, activities will be available throughout the day including live entertainment, kids zone (face painting, balloon art, caricatures, cotton candy), chef demonstrations, food judging, silent auction, health pavilion (screenings, literature, giveaways), and much more.
