Nicole’s goal is to inspire people to live their lives to the fullest. She hopes to influence community members, allies, and supporters to give ALL people the chance to try. Nicole Flynn, from Centre Hastings, is a photographer, professional speaker, and philosopher. Flynn is also the CEO of Nicole Flynn Enterprises and author of A Life Worth Living.

Night Kitchen Too (NKT) has been entertaining enthusiastic audiences from the Quinte Region for 10 years. NIGHT KITCHEN TOO provides a showcase for a diverse group of performers from the Quinte Region who present their music, poetry or spoken word on the stage of the Pinnacle Playhouse in the downtown core. Night Kitchen Too is a replica of an original idea that started entertaining audiences in Wolfville, NS. When granted permission to bring it to Belleville, we added “Too.” Just as with the original, NKT is a not-for-profit project. Proceeds from concert admissions are distributed amongst the performers after theatre, sound and minimal organizing costs have been paid.
