Alex Bury was trained as a classical chef at the world’s premier culinary college, the Culinary Institute of America.  Her career as a chef was already taking off in the mid-nineties, when she became painfully aware of the plight of animals.  In 2001, she opened the famous “vegan-only” Sparks restaurant in Guerneville, California.  Now she works full-time for PETA, and also teaches the art of healthful cooking at the McDougall Program and with Bay Area Vegetarians.  Standing ovations and enthusiastic acclamations follow her cooking presentations.

The cooking class will be held Sunday, July 9th at the Pacifica Library, 104 Hilton Way from 1pm to 3 pm.  This benefit is sponsored by Bay Area Vegetarians, BayAreaVeg.org, a local non-profit organization, based in Montara, working to promote a compassionate and cruelty-free lifestyle on the coastside and the broader San Francisco Bay Area.  All labor and profits are being donated to the Pacifica Library.

Pre-registration is highly recommended to reserve your space. Class registration is sliding scale to make this class affordable, while raising funds for our Pacifica Library.  Suggested sliding scale donation is $20-$30 per adult and $10-$15 per student under 18. Walk-ins accommodated as space permits.
