The Second Annual Culinary Jam Session at the Marriott CasaMagna gave guests the opportunity to experience a fabulous meal prepared by the award-winning chefs at several of the town's most prestigious restaurants - Bianco, Café des Artistes, Kaiser Maximilian, La Palapa, Los Xitomates, Trio, and the Marriott itself - while contributing to four local charities: Agape, a shelter for abused children; Arturo Los Hijos de Dios, an organization aiding those in urgent need; Asilo de Ancianos San Juan Diego, a home for the elderly; and Becas Vallarta, which provides scholarships for bright but needy local students. Several of Vallarta's most popular musical groups entertained throughout the evening, everyone participating in this event donating their time and their talents.
