NATIVE FOODS CELEBRATION @ IAIA

A celebration of Native food products, with demonstrations and talks by local and national food industry experts will be held on Sunday May 20th from 10am to 4pm on the IAIA campus. Various local food products will be on sale, and well-known chefs will be preparing special dishes. This event is free and open to the public. Families are encouraged to visit with the Native food producers participating in the Celebration.

Chef and cookbook author Loretta Barrett Odens PBS series, Seasoned with Spirit, will screen throughout the day.
