You are warmly invited to The Knights’ Annual Benefit 2026: A Musical Feast. This special event is a live mash-up of music food and culture curated by The Knights and J. Kenji López-Alt. Inspired by works performed by The Knights and special musical guests, Chef J. Kenji López-Alt demonstrates dishes in response to the music, with the creative process projected in real time. This year, we honor Joe Rose for his distinguished leadership and enduring commitment to the arts, and for the Knightsian spirit with which he brings people together and strengthens our community.
