We are delighted to launch a new way for Dames to come together and contribute to communities in need through food-related organizations in the Bay Area. This is a terrific way to meet and mingle with other Dames while preparing food for those in need.
Along with sister Dames, you will prep, cook, and serve community dinner at Loaves and Fishes of Contra Costa, where Dame Carissa Crader is Executive Chef Culinary & Director. All food ingredients and equipment are provided, though you can bring your own knives. Cooking will start at 2:30 pm for 5:00 pm dinner service for 80-120 people. Please join us!

Omnivore Books is kicking off our SF Dames 2026 social calendar with a very special Member Meetup. Please join us by making any recipe from your favorite cookbook. This potluck is, of course, about eating, drinking and fellowship, but it’s also a great way to talk about a cookbook that you care about and, who knows, maybe it’s a cookbook you wrote or co-authored! The recipe you make can be anything and can come from any cookbook, we just need to know the cookbook in advance so Omnivore Dame Celia and the Omnivore team can pull the book for a display.
Member Meetups are a great casual way to stay connected with other Dames. So dust off those books and get ready for a potluck like no other!
This is a free members-only event with a limit of 40. Only limited seating will be available, so plan to stand for the evening as you eat, talk, browse, and chat. Parking can be challenging so please plan ahead. You can pull up in front of Omnivore’s driveway space to drop off your dish if needed before parking.
