Roadhouse, Zingerman's Events

Join Us for a Silent Auction for Ann Arbor’s SafeHouse Center

Bring on the bidding for a really great cause at Zingerman’s Roadhouse!

The Roadhouse’s next Special Event #221: An Evening of Roasting, Braising, and Empowerment will be a very special night! Join us on Tuesday, March 13th, as we welcome James Beard award-winning cookbook author Molly Stevens and open the bidding on a Jelly Bean Jump Up silent auction for Ann Arbor’s SafeHouse Center.

In honor of his beloved dog Jelly bean, Ari Weinzweig started the Jelly Bean Jump Up fundraiser to contribute to SafeHouse Center. SafeHouse is a haven for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. By adding a silent auction to our Special Event #221, we hope to raise money to help survivors in our community.

We are grateful to the businesses who have donated to the auction, and look forward to showcasing the following packages:
