Continuing with the Spanish Flair theme of Iron Chef Jose Garces’ dinner presentation, guests will be treated to a wine pairing and presentation for each course by sommelier Florencio Lopez-Navarro of Quality Wines of Spain.

Sister Mary Scullion has been involved in service work and advocacy for homeless and mentally ill persons since 1978. In 1985, she co-founded Woman of Hope which provides supportive housing for homeless mentally ill women. In 1988, she helped establish the Outreach Coordination Center, a nationally recognized model, which coordinates street outreach to chronically homeless persons in Philadelphia.
In 1989, Sister Mary and Joan Dawson McConnon co-founded Project H.O.M.E. Since that time, Project H.O.M.E. has grown tremendously – now offering 459 units of housing in Philadelphia, including 272 units of supportive housing. Most recently, in 2008, we completed critically needed renovations to St. Elizabeth’s Recovery Residence, allowing us to provide 24 units to two special-needs populations: homeless Veterans and homeless men with physical disabilities. In 2004, we opened 144 units of affordable housing (“Kate’s Place”) in the heart of Rittenhouse Square to help prevent homelessness. Read more »

We are truly honored to have the Master of Latin Cuisine, Chef Jose Garces, oversee this year’s Keystone Weekend dinner on Friday, May 7, 2010. Chef Garces will be in the kitchen involved in the preparation of his “Spanish Flair” themed menu consisting of five courses, as well as his personal selection of wine to accompany our palates. Chef Garces (wearing his chef attire!) will join our guests during the plated dessert reception provided by the Hotel Hershey.
You won’t want to miss this exquisite opportunity to experience the gifted talents of Chef Jose Garces, owner of six restaurants and recently named one of six chefs in the country to hold the prestigious title of Iron Chef America.
[Updated: Dinner changed from three to five courses]
