This year’s SLEE Gala highlights the hope embodied by youth on the front lines of the food justice movement. Features a keynote by Chef Tarik Abdullah, “Feed the People: Food, Kids, Community.”
Known for his innovative pop-up restaurants, Tarik is an experienced chef and youth educator. Chef Tarik’s cuisine is inspired by the tastes and flavors of his childhood, growing up in a Muslim family and broader community where ethnic foods were the norm. With deep roots in Seattle’s south end, his mission is to “Feed the People” creating community one meal at a time against a backdrop of great music and visual arts.
