Social Art Network Sheffield, a community of artists building agency for the fields of art and social practice, come to Coventry to share exciting and experimental grassroots art practices around food cultivation, foraging, harvesting, preparation, cooking and the shared eating of meals. The network will be represented by a collective of artists and social practice projects – the Foodhall Project, Social Pickle, Ruth Levene, and network co-leads Jennifer Booth and James Harrington.
These practices demonstrate how grassroots, DIY, social practices can suggest, uncover, or indeed create, new possibilities for how we may live together – through distributed communities of micro-farms, public kitchens and cafes, universal access to healthy food, tackling isolation through social eating, circular economies innovating and using surpluses, as well as the harnessing of cultures to transform our foods.
Bring along your own lunch and join us for introductions to these practices and an open conversation over food.
