Chefs in the City is a unique, one-of-a-kind event and television program presented by WOSU Public Media. Now in its fourth year, Chefs is the only televised culinary event of its kind in central Ohio. In addition to the signature fundraising event, you will find a culinary-themed Chefs in the City Online Auction and other community events throughout the year under the moniker. Proceeds from this year's Chefs in the City will directly fund WOSU's educational children's programming.
