We’re launching Best Food Forward Bloomington’s Startup Fundraise — the first step in building a Living Classroom where culinary, arts, hospitality, and entrepreneurship converge.

This campaign fuels the next 6–12 months of development: designing the space, piloting programs, and building capacity to launch our full capital campaign.

By supporting this phase, you’re helping create a hub that will:

Train workers for living-wage careers
Support independent restaurants with tools and talent
Showcase local arts and creativity
Strengthen Bloomington’s cultural and economic vitality

💡 Join us in putting our best food forward — your gift today helps lay the foundation for a stronger, more inclusive Bloomington.

Building a Hospitality & Creative Exchange for Southern Indiana.
