Baltimore Photo Social: F*ck Forks @ The Taste of DC Loft!


Industrees premiere pop-up event, F*ck Forks, at the Taste of DC loft. A benefit for @LetsFCancer.

Baltimore Photo Social was fortunate to be a part of this amazing event last night at the Taste of DC loft. With chefs from Cava Mezza, Equinox and The Red Hen, a savory smell of truffles and butter was in the air. Finger foods were abundant and drinks were flowing courtesy of Jon Arroyo (Farmers Restaurant Group), Sam Babcock (RANGE), Trevor Frye (Jack Rose Dining Saloon) and Glendon Hartley (Cava Mezze). There were treats for the eyes as well: beautiful red roses by EDGE Floral Event Designers and a live painting performance by ArtJamz. And of course, guests flocked to us to have their photo taken to remember the event!

All of these wonderful things were brought together as a benefit for F*ck Cancer (www.letsfcancer.com) F*ck Cancer is a non profit organization focused on changing the way society perceives cancer

"from something we wait to get and pray there’s a cure to something we’re actively working to prevent, actively looking for and finding when it’s most curable."

This event wouldn't have been possible without the expert organization of Industree, who are most known for their speaker series for event and restaurant professionals.

"Industree serves as a bridge where there hasn't been one, and is committed to bringing the restaurant industry together in various formats to learn, grow, share, and connect through stories and the issues that face them moving forward in DC."

Founded in 2013 by Alisia Kleinmann, the organization has two main goals:

"to bring the hospitality community together as just that - a community - and to always find ways to give back to the non-profits within that community through powerful philanthropic efforts."

Baltimore Photo Social has a similar motto: that business owners and organizations have a responsibility to society to leave positive influences in all that they do. It was a pleasure working with other forward thinking remarkable people and we had a great time doing it.

And now, here are some of our favorite photos from the event!
