The QQA Chronicle: 3rd Quarter, July 2024
Vol 3 | July 2024 QQA Chronicle
A Summer Season
The QQA hosts a variety of educational dinner opportunities
Development
The QQA has already hosted two amazing Summer Suppers, alongside equally impressive venues and hosts. Our first Supper of the summer was hosted by Flora Jeans, and then Brooke Greenberg opened her stylish condo in the same building for dinner guests to tour. Flora Jeans provided a top notch, plant based meal of tapas and finger foods. Delights from Carrot Lox Bagel Bites to blueberry Beignets graced the tables.
The second Summer Supper of the season took place at the Sam Scull house, hosted by Ted Holder & Joe van den Heuvel. A selection of tasty hors d’oeuvres from Trio’s and Chef Teddy were provided alongside Festive cocktails from Rock Town, and beer cider from Stone’s Throw Brewing.
