OUR VISION

The Room at Cedar Grove and the Paul Kares Charity were co founded by Jim Rivette, an accomplished corporate executive and entrepreneur, and Paul Cullen, former bassist for the rock band Bad Company and now a culinary and entertainment entrepreneur. Together, they envisioned a space where music, food, and community could exist with purpose.

Their lifelong commitment to giving back inspired the creation of Paul Kares, a nonprofit dedicated to music, food, education, and cultural experiences. At its heart, The Room exists to bring people together, supporting emerging musicians and culinarians while creating meaningful moments that last well beyond the night.
