Soulfull: For the People, From the People
Description
Berkelouw Books are thrilled to be hosting the exclusive launch of Soulfull, the cookbook of community, storytelling and sustainability from the incredible Becca Bolton.
We will be hearing from Becca herself on her journey to create Soulfull and the project's blend of recipes, community stories and focus on local sustainable cooking, as well as from her partners at OzHarvest. There will also be a live art auction featuring stunning prints of some of the artworks featured in the book, and the proceeds will go to OzHarvest.
Join us to celebrate the launch of a very special project with many of the people who made it possible. Doors open at 5pm for a 5.30pm start, followed by an author discussion, live art auction, then guests will have an opportunity to ask questions and have their books signed. Refreshments will be provided.
Soulfull: For the People, From the People
How good is a book that actually does good? Soulfull is an independently published cookbook that lives somewhere between a creative archive and a cultural time capsule. More than just a list of ingredients, it's a celebration of the humans behind the meals. It's about memory, heritage, and that unpolished beauty you only find in a kitchen that's seen a few generations of cooking. Designed as an immersive editorial experience, Soulfull is the kind of book you leave on your coffee table to start a conversation, then take to the kitchen to start a meal.
Independently made in Australia as a cookbook and art publication, Soulfull brings together 12 recipes, 12 original artworks, four poems, photography and the personal stories carried through food including OzHarvest, Maggie Beer, Good & Fugly, Bush to Bowl, Kevala Ceramics and more. For every cookbook sold, 16 meals are donated to OzHarvest, providing food relief.
Lineup
Becca Bolton
I design with my heart on my sleeve and a responsibility to use creativity for people and planet. Designing for good, because I simply give a sh*t. I’ve built a few things. Held a lot more ideas than I’ve shipped. Some are still coming. Some didn’t make it. But I’m always building towards impact. My life’s work is Considered. A creative studio and ecosystem building brands for good — working with founders who want to create ethical, meaningful change through design. I’ve also built How Good. An impact store where every purchase donates to partners like OzHarvest and the Australian Marine Conservation Society. And Soufull... A publication and community exploring food, storytelling, and sustainability, evolving into {plentyfull}, a monthly ticketed long-lunch for good food and chef-takeovers. Basically...everything connects back to one idea: Design is a system. It can be used to create change.
