 Mt. Kisco, NY - Lexington Center for Recovery (LCR) will host its second annual fundraiser, Arts & Edibles in Memory of Jonathan D. Pfeffer, on Sunday, September 13, 2009.
Jonathan D. Pfeffer was a young friend who was lost too soon. This year's event will honor his memory.
Proceeds generated from the event will help Lexington Center for Recovery raise awareness and funds to support its mission: to assure that the needs of those affected by substance abuse are addressed in a holistic approach to service delivery with the recognition that successful recovery comes with a loving circle of support.
Arts & Edibles will begin at 2 p.m. and continue until 6 p.m. Two trolleys will wind around the trail, making stops at various local restaurants at which attendees may dine on tasty treats. While enjoying the local cuisine, trolley riders can browse and purchase artwork from Hudson Valley artists on display at each location. Last year, more than 200 people attended.
Participating restaurants include A Taste of Jamaica, Basilico, Big Apple Bagels, Blu, Café of Love, La Camilia, Lefteris Gyro, Lexington Square Café, Mango, Passage to India, Pierros, Spinellis, Starbucks, Temptation Tea House, The Fish Cellar, Via Vanti, and Woody's on Main.
Tickets cost $35 prior to the event and $40 at the door. For sponsorship information, or to purchase tickets, please call 914.666.0191. LCR is currently accepting artists and sponsors.
