DETAILS:
Ivy Tech Community College Northeast is hosting its fifth annual A Reason to Taste fundraiser this year. The theme centers around The Rome of France, giving guests a taste of Nimes, the French city with Italian heritage.

The dinner will be prepared by hospitality administration students and graduates who won the European Competition in January. Their prize was a trip to Europe to study the culinary arts. The students created the menu based upon their trip.
