February is Black History Month! Celebrate the impact Black people have had on Americ with activities for the whole family at EPL. Here's just a sampling of what's coming in February:

Treat your special someone to a delicious dinner out, candlelight meal at home, flowers and chocolates, special jewelry and even a night away from home! The best part is that you can find all of this in downtown Evanston at your local restaurants, shops and more. 

Join chef Sam Goldbroch for a class that can take your knife skills to the next level! Learn the fundamentals from a professional chef and knife maker. In this hands-on class we will go over what makes a good knife, knife care, knife safety, sharpening and honing, and of course, slicing, dicing and mincing!

Take your work home with a recipe so your food doesn't go to waste.

TruFit will provide the knives, cutting boards, delicious chef-prepared snacks, and non-alcoholic beverages. B ring yourselves, an apron if you have one, any beverage you would like to enjoy if applicable, and come to 604 Davis to hone your knife skills!

cloth + home is reopening for a Midwinter Trunk Show featuring Andrea Reynders, Gillion Carrara and Jamie Hayes.
