The Public Library of Youngstown and Mahoning County (PLYMC) is dedicated to providing a high-quality and accessible culinary education experience for its patrons. PLYMC offers culinary based programming in the Culinary Literacy Center at Main Library and Community Wellness Center at the Newport Branch.
Registration is required for all culinary literacy programs. A 48-hour notice is required for canceling registrations in the Culinary Literacy Center and Community Wellness Center. This procedure is essential due to the Library’s commitment to using fresh ingredients and the limited space for culinary classes.
Registered participants should promptly notify the Library if they are unable to attend a program. Providing a timely notice allows the reserved spot to go to someone else. If a participant registers for and misses two classes with less than a 48-hour notice within a three-month period, they will be ineligible to attend any culinary literacy class for the following three months.
Additionally, there will not be a waitlist available for programs in the Culinary Literacy Center and Community Wellness Center. Registration will open on our website when there are cancellations.
