Umami
and the NY Food Museum
join forces! |
Are
you a New York organization looking for
popular exhibitions for your
public space? |
In
2008, Umami Food and Arts Festival launched a week of exploration
of the connection between food and art, featuring food,
art, and art about food. Events push the experience and
concept of food to the limits, opening doors for performance,
literature, visual arts, music and food transportations.
It was a blast, and for 2010, NY Food Museum
will partner with Umami to create another sensational week
of events. Check here for further announcements! |
