About

This free orientation is for culinary class assistants. It's perfect for anyone looking to become an assistant or for those wanting a quick refresher on how the Kitchen Arts Studio works. 

All volunteers are required to go through this orientation. It's a pretty engaging 45 to 60 minutes where you'll learn about food safety, standard studio procedures, equipment operation, volunteer portal signup, and other important information. 

We intend to hold orientations once or twice a month. Feel free to sign up for a session or if you'd like to request a special session for a group, let us know and we'll try to get one scheduled for you. 

 Feel free to reach out to kitchen.lead@bainbridgebarn.org with any question you may have.

Class Policies

  • Ages 14 and up are welcome.
  • You must wear closed-toe shoes in the studio.
Instructor
Chris West

Chris is a tech industry escapee. In the interest of spending more time fiddling around with food, he went on a bit of a sabbatical and now, several years later, he’s still messing around in kitchens. He’s gone to culinary school, taught at that same school, dabbled around in restaurants, and now finds himself here at BARN, heading up the Culinary Arts Studio and teaching classes. When he’s not actively cooking, thinking about cooking, or reading about cooking he can usually be found hanging out with his wife, playing with their many animals (and probably getting ready to do some cooking).
