Culinary Concepts 2026

The Baltimore area’s premier cocktail party for a cause is back for its second year! Professional women's networking collective, **Ink + Numbers** will present ***Culinary Concepts 2026***: an elegant co-ed evening of cocktails, cuisine and community in support of **Starboard Society**, a local nonprofit dedicated to uplifting those in need. The festivities take place at an 8,200-square-foot estate featuring reclaimed luxury, custom design and expert craftsmanship. From exterior details to interior decorations and doors; to floors, fixtures and furniture, this architectural jewel incorporates Second Chance's salvaged materials in every conceivable way. Guests can network and travel through the spectacular home, while sampling curated bites and craft cocktails from such sponsors as **Fogo de Chão**, **Crave Catering**, **Cake™ by Jason**, **Scones by Andrew**, **Wandering Mixologists**, **Quarry Wine & Spirits**, **Diamondback Beer**, **Blue Pit BBQ**, **Baltimore Waffle Company,** and **McCormick & Schmick’s**. Adding to the fun will be the music of guitarist, **Eric Cawi**, and a silent auction featuring such categories as: beauty/fashion, food & beverage, pet services, home goods, photography sessions and high-end gifts. All event proceeds will directly benefit Starboard Society. **About Starboard Society --** Based in Cockeysville, Starboard Society provides immediate relief to Maryland families impacted by unforeseen crises—such as job loss, divorce, illness, death of a loved one or vehicle breakdowns—that cause financial instability.
