Chattanooga's Kitchen Incubator will host an evening of food, fun, family and faith on June 21 as part of its KIC Nights series.
On Friday, June 21st from 5pm to 9pm, a host of food trucks, local vendors, and great music by Karen Collins and Sam Patton & Friends will create a family-friendly atmosphere in the Midtown neighborhood.
Additionally, 11 new vendors are joining the team, having just graduated from the KIC Catalyst Cohort.
“It's shaping up to be a fantastic night!,” said Pat Rowe, KIC Member Manager at KIC. “KIC Night gives us another opportunity to host a family-friendly event in the Midtown area while showcasing the talented members of our Kitchen Incubator,” Rowe said.
“We think what KIC Nights is doing is amazing,” said DeJuan S. Jordan, co-CEO of LAUNCH, KIC's parent organization. “The goal is to bring together good food, unique products from local vendors, local music and families. With the help of our sponsor, Millennium Bank, we've been able to bring a positive vibe to an area of the city that isn't always fully appreciated despite its diversity, talented residents and central location,” Jordan adds.
KIC Night will be held around the Chattanooga Kitchen Incubator at 5704 Marlin Road, adjacent to Eastgate Town Center in the Brainerd neighborhood. Anyone interested in setting up a vendor can contact kic@launchchattanooga.org.
