Presented by award-winning chef and author Kwame Onwuachi, The Family Reunion is a new, first-of-its-kind food event, inspired by the time-honored gatherings of his ancestors, as well as the culinary and cultural heritage of his Afro-Caribbean roots.
The Family Reunion celebrates Black and Brown cooking traditions that have shaped American cuisine while also showcasing the next generation of food and wine professionals currently moving the industry forward.
Nolan was one of the inaugural presenters, leading the breakout session, “GRACE the Musical: Welcome to our Table,” a panel discussion of the history and themes that have inspired his new musical, featuring GRACE ambassadors Chef Carla Hall and Sheila C. Johnson along with Dr. Jessica B. Harris, award-winning author of High on the Hog, the book that has inspired the same-titled Netflix documentary series,
Nolan also presented three songs from the musical featuring GRACE leads Nova Payton and Kevin McAllister, accompanied by Paul Byssainthe, Jr.
"The Family Reunion is a reflection of Black culture and Black excellence. This is a new kind of event for our industry. The intimate nature of our inaugural year means there will never be another one quite like it."
