Camp Description

We’re excited to launch a robust online version of our signature summer cooking camps using live, interactive zoom lessons. Designed to provide children ages 8 to 15 the opportunity to gather together from the comforts of home as we have fun together in the Kitchen.

Limited-size live classes are full of excitement and connection, featuring two recipes each day. We’ll master new kitchen skills from reading recipes and measuring wet/dry ingredients to knife skills as we work our way towards Kitchen independence. Get ready for some kitchen fun – this will be the highlight of your week!

Winter Mystery Basket
Calling all chefs! Cooking shows have nothing on Taste Buds Kitchen’s tasty cooking extravaganzas. Join us as we cook our way through mystery baskets and surprise ingredients to prepare both savory and sweet treats while staying warm and cozy in your Kitchen. Who wouldn’t love to bake some delightful Cheese Twists to Pizza Cupcakes and Apple Spiced Cupcakes. Add your own spin on our classic recipes as you create something truly amazing. Let’s get cooking!

All recipes are vegetarian. If your family has food allergies, many recipes can be easily adjusted in your home to fit gluten-free, dairy-free or egg-free needs.

Registration is by the week.

What’s Included:

Live 2 hour camp experience Monday to Friday
Shopping list and recipes emailed prior
Ingredient Kit add-on available
Parents “How To” video with five tips on how to make our online experience as easy as possible for parents
How This Works

Live Online Class:
We’ll be sharing the same amazing culinary entertainment you’d get if you were in our Kitchen, except you can be in your jammies (no judgement here).

Participation:
Participation is for children with an adult present to chaperone and assist as needed. Siblings are welcome to cook together with sibling registration. Our goal is for the kids to do as much of the cooking as they can. Depending on the day we will be using knives, peelers, zesters/graters and the oven throughout our series so based on your child’s age and kitchen comfort, you will be their sous-chef as needed. Otherwise, we want parents to sit back and enjoy!

Shopping List & Ingredients
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email that includes a shopping list for the week along with the recipes so that you can purchase what you need to actively participate. Most ingredients are pantry staples and/or readily available in most grocery stores. OR, let us do the shopping and prep for you by adding on our weekly Ingredient Kit! Ingredient Kits include all ingredients (less milk) to make a family-sized portion of each recipe (i.e. 6 cupcakes). Ingredient Kits are available for those who register before 5pm on the Thursday before the camp week ahead.

Pick-Up or Delivery
Your Ingredient Kit if selected, will be available for pick-up from our Kitchen on the Sunday before your camp from 3-6pm. Delivery is also available for an additional fee.

Accessing the Class:
You will need to download the free Zoom app onto your desktop, tablet or phone before the class. You will receive a separate email that includes a Zoom link to our online class. We recommend joining from a laptop to see better but tablets work just fine as well. Please have all of your ingredients and equipment ready and waiting and your recipes out.

Spread the Word:
Please help us to spread the word to your friends and family (Referral reward of $5 for each family or friend that registers using your link). We’d love to have them cook along with us! Proceeds from online classes will go towards offsetting fixed overhead costs during this difficult time due to COVID-19. #supportsmallbusiness #TBKatHome

Want a private online class for you and your friends, an online birthday party for your child or a fun team-building corporate zoom call? We’d be happy to host you! Email miamiwest@tastebudskitchen.com to arrange.

Cost: Free

For real estate professionals looking to take their career to the next level, My State MLS, the first nationwide Multiple Listing Service of its kind with agents in all 50 states and Puerto Rico, is hosting free webinars throughout October, November and December.

The October and November webinars will cover everything from video marketing and creating a lead generating website to tips on manufactured housing listings and how to get through slow months. The December webinars will focus on “Heating Up a Cool Market” to help real estate professionals navigate the winter months and generating sales.

All webinars take place on Thursdays from 2-3 p.m. ET. Please see webinar schedule and registration details below:

Oct. 22, 2–3 p.m. ET: Lights, Camera, Go Live: Video Marketing for Real Estate
In an increasingly digital world, creating video content isn’t just a good idea for marketing a business – it’s critical to its success. Videos receive better social media engagement, increase email open rates and can even improve SEO. Even better, there’s no need for fancy gear or lengthy scripts to get started. Join My State MLS live to learn everything to get started with video marketing for real estate.

Oct. 29, 2–3 p.m. ET: Don’t Get Spooked by the Slow Season
Winter months are an opportunity to help buyers make their listings stand out in a less crowded market. Join My State MLS to learn how to keep spirits up during the slow season, the best ways to market a listing, tips to avoid being ghosted by buyers and where to find off-market listings that are ready to come back from the dead.

Nov. 5, 2–3 p.m. ET: The MLS for Manufactured Housing
Most MLSs don’t cater to mobile or manufactured housing sales. If they do allow manufactured housing listings, chances are they don’t provide the tools that brokers, dealers and park owners need to succeed. Sound familiar? It’s time to meet the MLS made for manufactured housing. With unique fields just for listings, top-tier syndication and superior tools for teams, learn more about My State MLS.

Nov. 12, 2–3 p.m. ET: Go Google Yourself: Creating Website for Real Estate
Learn how to control Google search results and rankings. In 2020, having a website is critical to marketing, promoting listings, increasing lead generation and building trust with potential customers. If that seems daunting, don’t worry; My State MLS will cover simple solutions to get started.

Conversations at MOCA: Kelly Breez + Autumn Casey 10/22/20

Conversations at MOCA: Kelly Breez + Autumn Casey

Website
Cost: Free

The Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami (MOCA) is pleased to feature two South Florida artists – Autumn Casey and Kelly Breez – as part of its free, virtual “Conversations at MOCA” series on Oct. 22. The artists will be discussing stories their past, current and future work with MOCA North Miami’s Exhibitions and Project Manager Kevin Arrow.

The speakers include:

Kelly Breez is a multidisciplinary artist whose work chronicles the perfectly unholy attitude and landscape of South Florida, where the characters she grew up with left the decorum and prohibitions of elitist culture in the dust. She works in – and combines – illustration, sculpture, tufting, painting, and installation. She is currently in her second year as an Ambassador for the Vans Custom Culture program, and she recently completed a five-week residency at Anderson Ranch in Snowmass, Colorado. Her work has been shown during Miami Art Week at NADA Art Fair, The Faena Forum and the Juxtapoz Clubhouse. She has a permanent installation at Facebook’s Miami offices, as part of their Artist in Residency Program. She is represented by Primary Projects in Miami, where her latest solo show, “Any Major Dude Will Tell You,” opened in October 2020. Breez holds a BFA from New World School of the Arts.

Autumn Casey draws on the ambiguity of personal memory and pop-cultural ephemera, to challenge and question her subjectivity against the world at large. Her practice, which moves from sculpture to collage, as well as video and performance, considers the history of the found object and assemblage – redeploying existing materials or moments in unexpected, idiosyncratic ways. She received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the New World School of the Arts, Miami, FL. She is represented by Primary (Miami) where she has had two solo exhibitions, and was selected to have a solo booth at Art Wynwood in 2015. Her work has also been included ingroup exhibitions at The Pérez Art Museum Miami, FL; The Museum of Contemporary Art, Miami, FL; Vox Populi, Philadelphia, PA; the Anne Bryan Gallery, Philadelphia, PA, among others. Her work is collected by the Museum of Contemporary Art, North Miami, The Pérez Art Museum Miami and in private collections in Miami and New York City.

(Virtual) Miami Champagne Week Day 3: Meunier Webinar with Matt Citriglia MS

Meunier – A Princess Disguised as a Peasant
The grapes of Champagne are well-known, but two grapes, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, have always been accepted as superior to Meunier. Meunier has historically been disparaged, but it appears that Meunier was simply a princess dressed as peasant waiting for her turn to reign. Where would Champagne be today if it were not for the fruit, fragrance and prettiness that Meunier gives to so many non-vintage blends? At this tasting, we will explore the supporting role that Meunier provides to the Champagne region, as well as its potential to rule on its own.

Matthew Citriglia, Master Sommelier, Director of Education for Southern Glazer’s Wine and Spirits Florida, will present this Webinar.

We will taste the following champagnes:
Role in a Blend

Champagne Aubry Brut Premier Cru – Jouy-les Reims
Champagne Rene Geoffroy “Expression” Brut Premier Cru – Ay
Expressed as a Varietal

Champagne Francis Orban Extra Brut – Leuvrigny
Champagne Egly Oriet “Les Vignes de Vrigney” Brut Premier Cru – Vrigny

Miami Champagne Week Day 1: Natural Champagne Webinar

The Natural Approach to Champagne: Challenges and Victories
The term ‘Natural Wine’ is a broad one and can be used to indicate a wine made with organic, biodynamic or sustainable techniques. Champagne, with its long history and global reputation as a premium wine producing region, arguably has a responsibility to pursue these environmentally-friendly approaches. In fact this idea has taken on increased importance in recent years, with many growers and producers looking to minimize their environmental impacts by controlling the use of unnatural substances, preserving the vineyard ecosystems and terroirs, and taking accountability of water and waste management. In this webinar we will look at the history of natural winemaking in Champagne, the challenges of applying sustainable and organic practices there, and how the efforts being made can impact the region in the future.

Nicole Ramos, WSET Level 3, FWS, SWS will present the Webinar.

We will taste the following champagnes:
-Larmandier-Bernier Longitude 1er Cru Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs, biodynamic
-J. Lassalle 1er Cru Cuvée Preference, sustainable

Date: October 13th, 2020, from 6pm to 7.30pm

(Virtual) Miami Champagne Week Day 2: The Art of Perrier-Jouët

Join us for Day 2 of Miami Champagne Week to experience champagne from one of the region’s most unique Houses, Maison Perrier-Jouët. The House was founded by two independent-minded free spirits who shared a passion for art and nature – and a bold vision for champagne.

Pierre-Nicolas Perrier and Rose-Adélaïde Jouët founded Maison Perrier-Jouët in 1811 with a desire to create a Champagne House with a difference. They selected Chardonnay as the signature grape of Maison Perrier-Jouët, elevating it from a little-used grape variety to the cornerstone of the world-renowned intricate, floral style of Perrier-Jouët champagne. Their attachment to the terroir, unconventional vision of champagne and belief in creativity redefined the history of champagne.

Alessandra Esteves, DipWSET, MW candidate, Director of Wine Education for Florida Wine Academy, will co-host the Webinar with Perrier-Jouët Champagne Ambassador Elise Cordell.

We will taste the following champagnes:
Champagne Perrier-Jouët Grand Brut
Champagne Perrier-Jouët Brut Blason Rosé
Champagne Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque Edition Premiere 2007

Date: October 14th, 2020, from 6pm to 7.30pm

George Clinton was born on July 22, 1941, and is an iconic singer, songwriter, bandleader, and record producer. Recording as both Parliament and Funkadelic, Clinton revolutionized popular music during the ’70s and ’80s with an avant-garde style that continues today. His Parliament-Funkadelic collective (which primarily recorded under the distinct band names Parliament and Funkadelic) developed an influential and eclectic form of funk music during the 1970s that drew on science fiction, outlandish fashion, psychedelia, and surreal humor. For over five decades, his unparalleled sound has been cited as the DNA of Hip Hop and Urban Culture.

As a visual artist, Clinton’s body of work is as adventurous and eclectic as his music. Early on he designed the iconic Mothership spaceship for use as a centerpiece stage prop for Parliament-Funkadelic live performances. It is now on permanent display at the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington DC.

Clinton is regarded as one of the foremost innovators of funk music. In 1977, he and Parliament-Funkadelic were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and then, in 2019, were honored with the pinnacle Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.

The 2020 Community Catalyst Award honoree, Nadege Green, is Director of Community Research and Storytelling at the Community Justice Project. She worked as a journalist in Miami for just over 10 years investigating how local government policies and actions—both historical and contemporary—impact everyday people. Her work centers around using analysis, data and narratives from the directly impacted to address housing inequities, climate justice, gun violence and other pressing issues in Miami-Dade County that disproportionately impact black and brown communities. Green believes in the power of teaching community storytelling as a means to educate, problem-solve and heal. She is a frequent lecturer and speaker in academic and community settings around disparities in Miami-Dade, local history and race. Green is a recipient of the Ruth Shack Leadership Award and the Florida ACLU Gene Miller Voice of Freedom Award. She’s also the proud mom of two amazing boys, Noah and Jacob.

El Koubek Center del Miami Dade College y MarGi Happenings, una organización basada en Miami que presenta artes escénicas sin fines de lucro, anunciaron hoy el lanzamiento del Teatro On Screen Fest, Festival Virtual de Teatro Hispano Miami 2020.

Este primer Festival Virtual se transmitirá por la plataforma digital Facebook LIVE en las páginas de @MarGiHappenings y @KoubekCenterMDC como parte de la celebración del mes de la Hispanidad en los Estados Unidos, los días 17, 18 y 19 de septiembre, 2020.

“Todos los géneros artísticos han sido afectados por la pandemia y han tenido que encontrar una alternativa virtual. La idea de un festival virtual de teatro surgió del deseo de explorar los desafíos y oportunidades que la pandemia presenta al teatro”, dijo Melissa Messulam, manager del Koubek Center. “Dada la respuesta que tuvimos a las lecturas dramatizadas, con Marilyn Romero y Gigi González, de MarGi Happenings, quienes cuentan con más de 30 años en el ámbito teatral de Miami, nos dimos cuenta de que aquí había una oportunidad para hacer más. Normalmente cuando pensamos en teatro, no pensamos en tecnología, y esto es algo que se presta a explorar nuevos horizontes”.

Para participar en el Festival, la obra debe tener algún vínculo representativo de la cultura hispana, dentro y fuera de los EE. UU., ya sea el autor, el tema, la adaptación, el idioma, los actores o el director y tendrá un mínimo de dos personajes (cada actor debe actuar por separado en su propio espacio) la duración debe ser de un mínimo de 30 minutos y un máximo de 40 minutos.

El Festival seleccionará 6 obras finalistas para su primera edición y los grupos interesados en participar deben mandar su inscripción y obra grabada antes del 24 de agosto del 2020. Las obras participantes se anunciarán el 7 de septiembre.

Puede encontrar las reglas completas para participar en el Festival Virtual de Teatro Hispano Miami 2020, aquí.

Cost: Free

¿Extraña ir al teatro? ¡Nosotros también! ¿Prefiere obras contemporáneas o los clásicos? Pues ahora puede disfrutar de todas ellas, y lecturas de textos de grandes autores, desde su sofá favorito. En colaboración con MarGi Happenings, el Koubek Center presenta una lectura dramatizada, inspirada en Pareja Abierta el 21 de agosto a las 7 p.m. EST por FB Live: @KoubekCenterMDC. Todas estas lecturas son en español.

Pareja Abierta, una obra escrita por Dario Fo y Franca Rame, plantea en tono de sátira una crítica a la doble moral que existe alrededor del sexo y el matrimonio. Relata la vida de una pareja liberal con una relación abierta, donde el único que disfruta verdaderamente de esa “libertad” es el hombre. Es una obra llena de gags cómicos y situaciones delirantes, que ayudan a suavizar la trama, pero que muestra, a la vez, la realidad de un mundo que sigue siendo predominantemente machista.

Gracias al apoyo del Departamento de Asuntos Culturales del Condado de Miami-Dade y del Estado de la Florida. Este evento es accesible para todos y no es apto para menores. Si necesita solicitar alguna información, comuníquese con el Koubek Center: 305.237.7750.

Do you miss going to the theater? Us, too! Do you prefer contemporary works or classics? Well, now you can enjoy all of them, and readings of texts by great authors, from your favorite couch. In collaboration with MarGi Happenings, the Koubek Center presents a reading inspired by Pareja Abierta on August 21 at 7 p.m. EST on FB Live: @KoubekCenterMDC. All readings are in Spanish.

Pareja Abierta, by Dario Fo and Franca Rame, is a play that offers a satirical critique to the double standards on sex and marriage. It tells the story of a liberal couple with an open relationship, in which the only one truly enjoying the “freedom” is the man. Full of comical skits and delirious situations that ease addressing the subject matter, the play shows, at the same time, the reality of a world that predominantly remains male-dominated.

Thanks to the support of the Cultural Affairs Department of Miami-Dade County and the State of Florida. This event is accessible to everyone and is not recommended for a young audience. If you need to request any information, please contact the Koubek Center: 305.237.7750.
