anyone?

I miss having significant cultural ties–mostly because of food.  I wonder how special it must be to have a marinara recipe as your family’s heirloom hand-me-down or a beautiful bowl of black beans and rice as a holiday tradition.  My culinary cultural traditions only really include macaroni and cheese and fried chicken–both mouth watering, but lacking in exotic flair.  This next Call gives you an opportunity to celebrate your unique cultural palatte, exotic or not.  Say it with pride…

Check out this Call for Entries from Smith Township Arts Council for American Mosaic to be exhibited at the Mills Pond House Gallery in St. James, NY.  Despite the name, this IS NOT a mosaic show.  Take a closer look…
