Then, on Saturday, April 9, High West will host “The Art of Craft,” a special evening featuring finely crafted food, exclusive spirits from the vault, and handcrafted tableside cocktails. The evening will be led by High West Executive Chef Michael Showers, Master Distiller Brendan Coyle, and Beverage Manager Holly Booth.
“It’s an absolute honor to be chosen to host two Friends of James Beard Benefit events by the James Beard Foundation, and we are excited to host our friends at Copper & Kings Distillery Louisville,” said High West Executive Chef Michael Showers. “We look forward to sharing our world-class hospitality with our guests to help support the independent restaurant industry across the country.”
According to the organizers, “Funds raised for these Friends of James Beard Benefit events will directly support the James Beard Foundation’s Open for Good program. The campaign aims to help independent restaurants survive the ongoing COVID-19 crisis, rebuild better, and thrive for the long term. Through critical resources, advocacy, and emergency and investment grants, Open for Good aims to help restaurants come back stronger, more equitable, more sustainable, and more resilient.”
