Food for Thought: JFK Library to Host Free Forum on American Cuisine
Ever wonder how America’s food traditions came to be? The JFK Presidential Library and Museum is hosting a free public forum on Thursday, November 19th, from 7pm–8pm, exploring how Indigenous and immigrant communities have helped shape American cuisine.
The discussion will feature acclaimed chef and restaurateur Joanne Chang, culinary historian Adrian Miller, and Indigenous chef Sherry Pocknett. Food writer Sheryl Julian will moderate the conversation, highlighting the cultures, traditions, and flavors that have influenced what we eat today.
The event is free and open to the public, but registration is required.
