We missed Flourish last year, but won’t let that happen again, so stay tuned for coverage on this years’ gala, or, better yet, get there yourself and enjoy all the delicious dishes with wine pairings!<\/p>\n

Flourish Gala\u00a0is a fundraiser for the Vancouver Community College Foundation to provide scholarships and training materials for current and future VCC students.\u00a0 This is an intimate\u00a0evening showcasing the work of VCC\u2019s highest-achieving students, faculty members and alumni. In addition to tasting creations by Vancouver\u2019s leading culinary minds, guests will experience the best of VCC’s fashion arts, auto restoration, live music and more.<\/p>\n
