Pull up a seat at the table! The Cookbook Lookbook Calendar + Zine Release will feature a table set with various pages of a zine-laced calendar open at each seat. Visitors can wander around to view the project, and calendars will be available for sale. A selection of original artworks will also be on display. The atmosphere will be enriched with aromatic herbs, along with freshly brewed tea and coffee to activate the senses. Live readings from the zines will engage the sense of sound, providing an opportunity to connect with art and storytelling in an immersive way. The organizers hope to record their readings being spoken aloud in this public setting.
The Cookbook Lookbook cohort includes: Antoinette Ellis-Williams, Marlene Ellis, Ayana Kareem, Bertha Miller, Krystle Lemonias, Larissa Velez-Jackson, Lisa Van Croft-Ellis, Meg Ellis, Melisa Gerecci, Monifa Kincaid, Mystic Multiples, Natalie Duran, Noemí Solís, Sebastián Gómez de la Torre, Soft Spots Riso, and Yvette Molina.
