Sips & Slices
Join The River Food Pantry for Sips & Slices, a flavorful afternoon celebrating Madison’s vibrant and global food community while raising critical funds to support local families facing food insecurity.
This year’s event will be held at The River’s brand-new facility, making it an especially meaningful opportunity to gather, celebrate, and experience the next chapter of The River’s work in our community.
Guests will enjoy heavy appetizer-style tastings from several Madison-area restaurants, drinks from the bar, an exciting silent and live auction, and a meaningful mission moment highlighting The River’s impact across Dane County. This year’s event will bring together chefs, community partners, and supporters for an afternoon of great food, connection, and generosity.
Proceeds from Sips & Slices directly support The River Food Pantry’s work to provide food, resources, and hope to neighbors in need. We hope you’ll join us for this inspiring celebration of community, compassion, and local flavor.
Early bird pricing is available through July 31, so secure your spot soon!
