Whether your work reflects the rituals of gathering around the table, the beauty of ingredients, or the broader social and cultural stories connected to food, we encourage you to share your unique perspective.

Entry Deadline: August 26, 2026
Exhibition Dates: September 12 – October 10

$5 entry fee. Pay this through our website
Original artwork in all media is welcome.
Work must relate to the theme of food in any interpretation.
