Description

In honor of Food Shift, an interactive, interdisciplinary exhibition at Interface Gallery, we invite you to join us for a hands-on workshop with Lonna Lopez of Oakland Dry Goods. She’ll show us how to make unique, hyper-local preserves with neighborhood-foraged fruit. We’ll roll up our sleeves with her as she reveals the secret to time-shifting the season by balancing sweetness and acidity, experimenting with texture, and keeping our preserves… preserved.

YOU'LL GO HOME WITH:

- the fruits of your labor – handmade preserves
- a map to local fruit foraging sites
- all you need to know to continue preserving at home!

We're keeping this class small and intimate so reserve your spot now!


ABOUT the Food Shift Exhibition at Interface Gallery:

Food Shift is an interactive, interdisciplinary exhibition dedicated to exploring the social, environmental and human impacts of food waste and food systems from a variety of perspectives.

This exhibition is inspired by and designed to call attention to the work of Bay Area organization, Food Shift. Food Shift is an Earth Island Institute sponsored project working to build a more just and sustainable food system. A primary area of focus for the organization involves looking at the relationship between food waste and hunger.

Works and interactive activities presented in this exhibition look critically at problems with our current food systems as well as present alternative ways of thinking about how to make use of food waste, while contributing to more just and sustainable practices.
