How can we connect in a divided world? Artist Liz Hernández proposes food and collective art making as avenues for unity. Food, served in both celebration and sorrow, is a powerful connector. In this workshop, the collaborative canvas for our marks is a ceramic plate big enough to hold a shareable dish.
