University of Richmond

Center for Culinary Arts

Create. Education. Celebrate

There's a unique place in Richmond where you can find bridesmaids bonding over baklava they baked themselves. Co-workers whipping up culinary masterpieces. Managers working together to master a marinara sauce. And colleagues cooking up a whole lotta fun!

From wining and dining clients to corporate team-building functions and bridal showers to private cooking lessons, our brand new, fully-appointed Center for Culinary Arts is just the place to hold your group's next culinary event - one certain to offer outstanding educational, social and entertainment value.

We offer hands-on and demonstration-style sessions and can customize any session to suit individual budgets and tastes. Beverage pairings are an option, too. We also offer individual cooking classes through our Culinary Arts Program.
