How does the Institute accommodate dietary needs when providing food at events?

The Institute offers vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and dairy-free options at all events. For other dietary needs, requests must be submitted at least one week in advance. We will make every effort to accommodate requests; however, adjustments are not guaranteed.
