Preserves- Recipe Swap And Storytelling Club

Are you invigorated by connecting with people around a dinner table? Does cooking for others feel like a way to share a part of yourself? We invite you to join us for Preserves, a recipe swap and storytelling club! Each meeting will be centered around sharing food prepared by and with the community. As we break bread, members will have the opportunity to share the personal stories behind their dishes, revealing the human ingredient of our recipes. Preserves seeks to utilize food as a conduit for sharing cultural traditions, broadening perspectives, and fostering connections with our neighbors. Together, we will build a community cookbook that documents our recipes and stories for Dallas and beyond. What to Bring:A sharable dish. (Due to limited resources for re-heating, bonus points for dishes that can be served at room temperature or that travel well warm.)A 3-5 minute story. More experienced speakers can share from memory, but feel free to type something up and read it aloud. The theme of our first meeting is food that sparks nostalgia (read more in the Lineup section above)This is a BYOB event. Alcoholic beverages are allowed but must be provided to event organizers for serving. More Info below.
