Asian American Holiday Party and 6th Annual Toy Drive

Come join TAP-Chicago, TJCCC, and the Typhoon dragon boat team for our Holiday Party and 6th Annual Toy Drive at Nellcôte on Monday, December 17th! Inspired by the French chateau where the Rolling Stones recorded “Exile on Main Street” in the 70s, Nellcote is one of Chicago’s most luxurious and fun restaurant hotspots.

We are partnering with the youth program at the Chinese Mutual Aid Association and your toy donations will help make it a happy holiday for 80+ underprivileged children. Guests will enjoy delicious complementary appetizers from Nellcote as well as drink specials all night.

Join us to celebrate the holiday season the right way with good friends and for a good cause!
