Supper Club with Chef Lisa Stuart

Due to predicted inclement weather, this event has been rescheduled from its original date to Wednesday, February 26. If you are a current ticketholder to this event, a Guest Experience associate will be in touch with you shortly.

Join us for a night of exquisite food, handcrafted cocktails, and engaging conversation at Supper Club, the Momentary’s newest dining experience! We believe great food should be shared, which is why we invite you to an evening where you can connect and share stories over a meal. It’s not just about the food; it’s about the connections we make and the community we build together, one meal at a time.

This month, join us for a comforting family-style menu by Momentary Sous Chef, Lisa Stuart. Inspired by her own journey and her Mississippi roots, this isn’t your average dinner out—it’s about coming together, feeling at home, and being part of a meaningful experience. Whether you’re dining with old friends or new faces, the evening is all about enjoying the meal and the company!

ABOUT THE CHEF

Lisa Faith Stuart is a 42 year old transgender woman, widow, chef, LGBTQ activist, fashion model, and producer. She currently resides in Fayetteville, Arkansas, with her partner Ava and their two energetic, lovable Great Danes. Originally from southern Mississippi, Lisa traveled extensively with her family during her youth, visiting 5 continents and 3 oceans before the age of 20. As a result, she has long been inspired by the diversity of cultures and experiences to be found around the globe. In 2010, she relocated to Northwest Arkansas where she continued her culinary career and first joined the Crystal Bridges family in 2012.  

After transitioning in 2014, Ms. Stuart spent the next ten years furthering a passionate career as an LGBTQ advocate. Transitioning inside of a male-dominated industry was challenging, but she never let that discourage her. Instead, she used it to inspire and push herself to new heights. As an activist, Ms. Stuart has founded two non-profit organizations and served on the board of directors for several others, dedicating over a decade of her life to activism, advocacy, and education on behalf of the transgender community.  

During this time, she also began to explore the world of fashion, first as a model, walking runways in Northwest Arkansas and Miami, Florida, and culminating in a 2022 appearance on the runway of New York Fashion Week. Along the way, Lisa began to use her presence in the fashion world to promote diversity and inclusion in the industry, which eventually led her to begin producing and organizing fashion events of her own centered around promoting diversity. 

After the unexpected death of her husband, Clay Cole, in June 2023, Lisa attempted to take some time away from many of her advocacy, nonprofit, and fashion projects to focus on healing. That sabbatical, however, would be short-lived, as she’s never been one to sit still for too long. Five months after his passing, she threw her efforts into relaunching her husband’s former project, “My Open Mic”, the longest running open mic variety showcase in Northwest Arkansas. She continues to co-host the show every Sunday night in Fayetteville. 

In all things, from food to fashion and modeling to music, Lisa is passionate about seeking the beauty of diversity alongside the comfort of the familiar.
