The Losing Art of Plating: Drag Aesthetics, Food Security, and Harm Reduction with Mikiki
7:30-9:30pm
In this hands-on workshop, participants will build extravagant plates of highly processed (“junk”) food. Performance Artist and Queer Community Activist Mikiki will lead the workshop, facilitating conversations about the politics of food as it intersects with concepts of beauty, gender representation, drag, food security, and harm reduction. Unpacking the language of “junk food” through creativity and play, this drop-in program is welcoming to people of all ages.
Please note: Various food products will be available in the workshop space, so please take the necessary precautions if you have a food allergy.
If there is something we can do to support your participation, or if you have any questions about the program, please contact Hannah Keating at hkeating@rmg.on.ca.
