Cheese Writing Class for Tweens

Does your kid (aged 10-13) love cheese? In this 75-min class, they'll learn the language of cheese through cheese tasting and food writing!

About this Event

Join for an afternoon of cheese education with Stand Alone cheesemonger Katie Machen on Saturday, July 19!

In this 75-minute class, kids will try four different cheeses from around the world and investigate their look, smell, and taste. Together we will come up with the vocabulary to describe the cheeses we taste and the other foods we discuss. So much of knowing how to order cheeses you like is having an idea of what it is you like!

This course is designed for kids aged 10-13.

What should I bring? An appetite and a curious spirit! Paper and pencils will be provided.

About Katie: Katie Machen (she/her) holds an MFA in creative writing and literary translation from Queens College, CUNY and has been teaching writing for over a decade. You may have seen her selling cheese at Stand Alone Cheese, where she's always excited to taste something new and help kids and adults alike find the perfect cheese for them! She lives in Jackson Heights.
