Our Common Table: Building Community Through Food
Our Common Table brings together food, art, music, history, dance, and community to celebrate the meals and memories that shape us. We invite you to join us for this free community meal, presented in partnership with The NEA Big Read and inspired by Bite by Bite by Aimee Nezhukumatathil. The April 14th event will feature artist talks by several of our featured artists, with a tour of the exhibit beginning at 5:30pm.
