AI students to help out at Diabetes Initiative

Culinary students at the Art Institute of Ohio--Cincinnati will help prepare and serve food at an event taking place Oct. 17 in conjunction with Gourmet Enterprises to help benefit the HealthCare Connection's Diabetes Initiative. Students will serve "Jazzy Bites" to guests at a special reception prior to a performance by Grammy-winning singer Al Jarreau. The reception also will feature live jazz performed by local music groups.

"This is a wonderful opportunity for our Culinary students to acquire valuable first-hand experience at an upscale event, while also contributing to a cause that affects so many people here in Cincinnati and throughout the country," said chef Laird Livingston, director of the International Culinary School at The Art Institute of Ohio--Cincinnati, in a statement.
