A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held Sept. 26 to mark the official opening of the Seasoned Market on the East Liverpool Campus.
Although the space was open and ready at the beginning of the fall semester, the “grand opening” was an opportunity to showcase the space and thank all who were involved with making it possible.
While the Seasoned Market is housed in Purinton Hall, it is managed and staffed by Aramark, the Kent State food vendor.
During the opening event, Aramark provided free samples of its sandwiches and soup, while Kent State’s office of student affairs provided games, giveaways, gift bags and raffle prizes.
