Join the ASU Art Museum for a community health panel exploring food as medicine, inspired by the exhibition Carmen Lomas Garza: Picturing the Familiar. This conversation brings together cultural practitioners and scholars—including Kitchen Curandera Felicia Ruiz, Chinese Chorizo Project founder Feng-Feng Yeh, and ASU nutrition expert Sonia Vega-Lopez—to share perspectives on traditional healing, foodways, and the role of cooking in community wellness. Guests can enjoy tamales as part of this celebration of nourishment, culture, and connection.
