Considered the greatest culinary educator of our time, Jacques Pépin has dedicated the majority of his career to teaching technique by authoring over 30 cookbooks and hosting 13 public television series.
An iconic chef, author, teacher, television personality, and artist, his legendary impact has touched lives and kitchens across decades and generations.
In collaboration with chefs and restaurants spanning the nation, we will celebrate Jacques through December 2025.
We are excited to launch our biggest initiative ever: the 90/90 Dinner Series. These ticketed dinners, celebrating Jacques’ 90th birthday in 2025, are designed to generate significant support to advance our mission of improving lives through culinary education.
Most importantly, each chef and restaurant has pledged that proceeds from these exclusive events will directly benefit the Jacques Pépin Foundation, and directly support our community kitchen programs and educational videos, creating a cycle of support that empowers individuals and communities.
Thank you! Your participation ensures a lasting impact on communities nationwide.
