TOMORROW! Be Mighty is cooking from the CALS collection once again! This time, we're featuring a title from the Roberts Library's collection: Eliza Ashley's cookbook, Thirty Years at the Mansion. Eliza Jane Ashley spent over thirty years as the cook in the Arkansas Governor's Mansion. Her 1985 cookbook, containing decades of recipes, stories, and photographs, gained national attention.

Join us at the Williams Library on Thursday, February 12th, at 6pm. We'll cook one of her recipes, learn about her life (and Black foodways in Arkansas), and even play some trivia!

Registration is strongly encouraged but not required. There will be free samples from the cooking demonstration. Available while supplies last.

Did you know February is American Heart Month? Be Mighty is collaborating with the American Heart Association of Arkansas for next week's chicken piccata cook along -- and we're excited to announce our February guest chefs, Jessie and Presley Bennett!

This inspiring mother-daughter duo is joining the Be Mighty Little Rock cooking series to prepare Chicken Piccata from the American Heart Association’s recipe book. Jessie is a stroke survivor whose life was saved when her daughter Presley called 9-1-1 at just four years old. Together, they share a powerful story of quick thinking, the importance of having a family emergency plan, and why heart health matters at every age.

Remember to register for your FREE recipe kit, available to pick up on Wednesday 2/18 at Children's or Nixon Library! We will go live on Instagram & Facebook on Thursday 2/19 at 6pm.
