Have you ever wondered how you can preserve your family’s Southern cookbooks? Or, what are the common characteristics of Southern food across different regions? This panel examines the different factors that have shaped Southern cuisine over the years, the buried knowledge, and the role that museums can play in keeping Southern food alive. The program is a part of the 2020-2021 Public Humanities Series: Conversations in the Neighborhood – Let’s Talk About Food.
