Culinary Workshop: Celebrating Ancestral Foodways
Event
Come celebrate the power of storytelling and ancestral connections in the Kitchen Garden, with LA Commons and culinary artist Lozen Orozco from Spirit Plate.
Classes
Spirit Plate will lead community members in a food demonstration that uplifts Indigenous food traditions and promotes sustainable cultural practices. Participants will learn about the significance, and uses of various plants while sharing stories and connections to ancestral foodways. Alongside this workshop, LA Commons and The Huntington will facilitate a potting and intention-setting activity inspired by the garden.
About the Organization
LA Commons engages communities in the creation of public art that tells their unique stories and serves as the basis for dialogue, interaction, and a shared understanding of Los Angeles.
