Come Hear the Barefoot Contessa at the JCC
Garten will speak in NYC and be simulcast live at the J on Wednesday.
She’s America’s favorite hostess and now you can hear the Barefoot Contessa Ina Garten at the JCC in Marblehead on Wednesday, March 23, at 8pm.
It’s the latest in the JCC’s Manhattan in Marblehead series. Garten will speak in NYC and be simulcast live at the J. It’s an interactive evening – the audience in Marblehead can ask the Contessa questions and she’ll answer them from New York!
Come a little early Wednesday evening and enjoy delicious hors d’oeuvres (Ina Garten’s recipe, of course!) prepared by Henry’s Market in Beverly. The Spirit of ’76 Bookstore will be here, too, selling Barefoot Contessa cookbooks.

Garten will dish about her successful ventures in retail, television and publishing, as well as her life as wife and home cook.
She worked in the White House Office of Management and Budget until on a whim, she bought a specialty food store on Long Island.

The rest, as they say, is history! She’s since sold the store, written several books and now stars in a cooking show on the Food Network.
This wonderful evening is open to all. JCC members $10, non-members $12. Save your seat now at www.jccns.org or call 781-631-8330.
The Manhattan in Marblehead series continues on Wednesday, May 18th, with Satire King Andy Borowitz and an A-list panel of journalists and comedians looking at the 2012 elections. Save the date!
