FOOD
for the ages
The story of my life could easily be told with my culinary history: the half-eaten worm that immediately proceeded my speaking in complete sentences (gross, but true), the cheese dogs of my youth (nicknamed angels riding horseback), the short-lived teenage infatuation with fast food, the pasta love fest of my twenties, and the ongoing efforts to repair all the damage done now that I know better, ha. This next Call wants to hear your stories, but again, the food references are merely optional. No artist statements required this time…
Check out this Call for Entries from L.A. Photo Curator for the Storytelling exhibit. $20 entry, no shipping & a portion of the entry fees goes to a great charity. Take a look…
