ABOUT FOOD SHIFT

Food Shift is an interactive, interdsciplinary 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.
