PANEL DISCUSSION: Keeping My Culture Alive through FOOD. An exhibition by Gemma Leslie

Food is more than just sustenance; it is a living expression of our traditions, memories, and identities. It connects us to our roots, our families, and our communities. In a multicultural society like ours, food serves as a bridge, allowing us to share and celebrate the rich tapestry of cultures that define modern Australia

Our guests bring their unique perspectives and experiences to this theme. They will share insights into their culinary traditions, the influence of living in a multicultural city on their pantry essentials, and how they keep their cultural heritage alive through food, even when they are far from their ancestral homes. Through their stories and experiences, we will gain a deeper understanding of the profound impact food has on maintaining cultural identity and fostering community.

Hosted by Melbourne based podcast 'What Artist Eat', Claire Lefebvre and Zoltan Fesco.

Panel guests: 
Jaclyn Crupi (Italian Pantry)
Kira Hosking (Japanese Pantry)
Adriana Bradica (Croatian Pantry)

Gemma Leslie, exhibition Artist will be present to MC the event.
