Public Ritual: "Tales From the Table"

Tales From The Table is an innovative community art project that uses culinary traditions to explore and celebrate the rich narratives connecting diasporic communities of color. Through community events, participants will engage in meaningful discussions about their relationships with food, culture, and identity, weaving artistic connections through everyday objects and shared oral histories. Tales From The Table catalyzes sustained cultural dialogue and social cohesion, addressing gentrification, racial tension, and cultural erasure and creating enduring spirits that continue the conversation beyond the project's duration. Join us in this exploration, solidarity, and healing journey as we highlight and honor our diaspora's shared histories and futures.

This project is sponsored, in part, by the Greater New York Arts Development Fund of the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, administered by the Brooklyn Arts Council (BAC), and is fiscally sponsored by the New York Foundation for the Arts.
