What is Bites at The Big Top?
Held at The Big Top at Grand Center, this event will feature a sampling of St. Louis’ best restaurants and mixologists. Enjoy small bites and cocktail samples from dozens of your favorite local spots (our lineup is dropping closer to the event, but we’ve got a few surprises you won’t want to miss). And while you’re experiencing St. Louis’ best-tasting menu, be amazed by circus performers on the central stage from our partners at Circus Harmony!
Why should I support Bites at The Big Top?
Did you know that more than 7,000 kids enter the Missouri foster care system each year? That is an average of 19 children per day. The Foster and Adoptive Care Coalition was created to fill gaps in our child-welfare system. We find forever families for children in foster care and support parents on the frontlines of helping our kids heal. We call ourselves a Coalition because it takes everyone – parents, volunteers, donors, and advocates – to make sure children leave foster care quickly and have a real chance to heal and grow.
