Meet Isabel Coss, executive chef at Pascual on Capitol Hill and pastry chef at Lutece in Georgetown, whose sold-out master class happens on Feb. 23. The Hill Center impressed chef Isabel Coss the very first time she visited, and long before she knew she’d be teaching there. Washington City Paper named her one of its Change Makers for the 2024 People Issue and had brought the group in for a photo shoot. “I fell in love with the place,” she says. “I thought it would be the perfect spot for building a sense of community—and then I saw all the activities listed!” It echoes how the ebullient, 33-year-old Mexico City native feels about opening Pascual on Capitol Hill, which is celebrating its 1-year anniversary in February.

The Life of a Poet is a quarterly series of conversations that Hill Center launched in 2013. The series offers a rare opportunity to consider a writer’s entire career and explore the major events that have shaped their work. Featured poets have included Poet Laureate, Ada Limón, Elizabeth Alexander, Terrance Hayes, Adrian Matejka and Marilyn Chin, among many others. Accomplished poet and editor, Kyle Dargan, curates the series and expertly moderates each conversation. On Thursday, January 23rd, celebrated poet and librettist Janine Joseph is our guest.
