A Meal: Community Programs
LEIMAY + Guests
A Meal came out of LEIMAY’s experience and desire to build a community. It’s about bringing people together through visceral rituals. With the state of divisiveness and partisanship currently rampant in the US, A Meal opens a space to create new relationships while questioning through art the structures and environmental challenges of food in the anthropocene.
While developing “A Meal,” LEIMAY partnered with community organizers to host a series of public events focused on our relationship to food. Programs included a Storytelling & Bookbinding class, a Conversation between food activists, and a Discussion on Food and Ecology.
