Culinary Art and Mental Health
Culinary art classes offer a therapeutic outlet for individuals battling depression and mental health challenges. Cooking can promote mindfulness, creativity, and a sense of accomplishment, helping reduce anxiety and stress symptoms. Individuals can find joy and relaxation by focusing on preparing and creating meals, which contributes to overall emotional well-being.
Appreciation to the "Cooking The Wright Way"
A heartfelt thank you to the chefs from “Cooking The Wright Way,” including our junior chef, for providing us with amazing food and consistently supporting our fundraising efforts at our Annual Fire and Ice Ball 2024.
Save the date! Our next Fire and Ice Ball is on February 15th, 2025, with the theme “The Roaring 20s.” If you’re interested in volunteering, we would love to have you join our team. Please use the contact/donate buttons on our site to get in touch with us or to make a donation. Your involvement is crucial in helping us continue our mission to foster emotional well-being and creative expression in our community.
Team I AM Invisible partnered with “Cooking The Wright Way,” a non-profit organization led by celebrity chefs Sterling Wright and Brandon Williams, to promote self-worth and self-esteem among youth. Their initial class in 2022, which was free for youth and teens in the community, was a major success, as highlighted in the news article we have provided for you. The chefs collaborated with local chefs Robin Williams and her son Brandon Williams. Additionally, a junior chef from the Nashville culinary class “Cooking The Wright Way” was featured as a guest chef.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the volunteers who made this event possible. Your dedication and support are truly invaluable in helping us achieve our mission. Your contributions have made a significant difference in the lives of the youth we serve, and we are deeply thankful for your commitment.
Additionally, please listen to the initial interviews from the youth as conducted by Chef Sterling Wright. Your support and interest in these stories help amplify the voices of our young participants and further our cause.
