A celebrity chef who is likely well-known to Disney World fans is hosting a Florida Hurricane Relief event soon.
Florida has recently been hit by two hurricanes, Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton, with parts of Florida experiencing lots of damage. While there are many ways to help with the hurricane relief efforts, you can party with a purpose with this celebrity chef to help!
Chef Art Smith, owner of Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’ in Disney Springs as well as six other restaurants, is hosting a Party with a Purpose for Florida Hurricane Relief. The event will be held on October 12th at the Chicago Q Restaurant from 6PM-9PM. Chicago Q Restaurant is a southern BBQ restaurant located in Chicago, IL.
If you are interested in attending, you can find the link for tickets on Chef Art Smith’s Instagram page. It is free to RSVP through Eventbrite, but there is a suggested donation of $65 per person at the door. All contributions from the event will go to World Central Kitchen.
World Central Kitchen is an organization that was founded by Chef José Andrés. Disney World fans may also recognize Chef José Andrés as he owns Jaleo by José Andrés and Pepe by José Andrés in Disney Springs. The organization provides chef-prepared meals to communities impacted by natural disasters and during humanitarian crises. World Central Kitchen has served more than 400 million meals to people in need, and they are working hard to provide relief to Florida.
Our hearts are with everyone who was impacted by Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton. If you are in the Chicago area, we hope you will consider attending the Florida Hurricane Relief event put on by Chef Art Smith.
