We all know that Worthington is a pizza mecca, right? I mean, here’s what you’ll find just along High Street, and that doesn’t even include all the hidden gems scattered off the main paths.

Sometimes you wish you could taste it all, and now you can do just that, while also supporting a good cause. How? You snag tickets to the inaugural Slice of Worthington!

Slice of Worthington is a community- and pizza-centric fundraiser happening on Thursday, March 15 at The Shops at Worthington Place. Thirteen pizza shops from around Worthington will be on hand sampling some of their signature pies. You get to stroll around, eat pizza from all over the neighborhood, sip beers from Zaftig Brewing, listen to live music from Matt Steidle, taste sweets from the bake sale, and enjoy activities for the kiddos.

Here’s the pizza line-up so far:

  • Dewey's Pizza
  • Donatos
  • East Coast Pizzeria
  • Jet's Pizza
  • JT's Pizza and Pub
  • Leone's Pizza
  • Marco's Pizza
  • Massey’s Pizza
  • Natalie's Coal Fired Pizza
  • Pizza House
  • Sbarro
  • VillaNova Ristorante
  • Worthington Pizza Primo

And everyone likes to brag on their favorite pizza, right? You’ll get your say! After you eat your fill of pizza, you can cast a vote for the People’s Choice award. A trio of esteemed judges will also award one pizza shop with a Judges’ Choice prize.

The pizza is great, but truly the best part of the event is that you’re helping feed hungry kids. The Old Worthington Partnership and Sacred Space Church are collaborating on Slice of Worthington, and the proceeds benefit FeedWorthingtonKids.org, a program through the Family Mentor Foundation. They supply weekend meals to kids in need from Colonial Hills and Wilson Hill elementary schools. A lot of kids depend on school breakfast and lunch, but they don’t get that on weekends, and Family Mentor helps fill the gap.

To recap:

  • Pizza
  • Music
  • More pizza
  • Beer
  • Even more pizza
  • Kid's activities
  • Pizza, if you're still hungry
  • Bake sale
  • Feed hungry kids
