host “Food for the Journey: Kansas Stories”
June 19 @ 12:00 pm – 5:00 pm
The event is part of “Kansas Folklife: Celebrating Kansas Traditions,” a series of folklife
presentations developed by Humanities Kansas recognizing the nation’s milestone 250th anniversary.
This is a free Lunch and Learn event, with drinks and desserts provided.
“Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend this presentation event to learn more about the Kansas Folklife and the journey of African Americans migration from the south” said Museum Director, Kirk Sharp.
As African Americans made their way to Kansas, what foods came with them? Theressa Rice’s presentation is rooted in stories – stories from her history, her grandparents’ farm, her family’s migration from Oklahoma and Texas, and the food that graced the table for Sunday Supper once they reached their destination.
