Are you interested in starting a food truck, catering business, farmers' market stand, etc.? Do you have questions about how to start and what to expect along the way?

Come learn from Wantonia Dyson, who started off baking for the Binford Farmers' Market and now supports small businesses all over the city through her commercial kitchen space. Dyson has over a decade of experience in the culinary industry. After launching her baked goods business, Tonia's On A Roll, she faced challenges finding a licensed kitchen for her mobile food business. This experience inspired her to create The Cooking Station Indy, offering a dedicated, certified space to support food entrepreneurs like herself. Her commitment to culinary innovation and entrepreneurship has transformed The Cooking Station Indy into a vibrant space for chefs, caterers, food trucks, and local farmers alike. This class will be held in the Riley Room at Central Library.

About the branch

As the hub of the Indianapolis Public Library system, Central Library showcases renowned architecture and services. The original 1917 building, designed by Paul Cret and constructed of Indiana limestone in the Greek Doric style, was considered one of the most outstanding secular buildings in the U.S. Its six-story glass and steel-framed addition, designed by Evans Woollen, opened in 2007.
