"menu of memory" is a coloring book that accompanied Christopher Leitch's contributions to the Cincinnati’s Table series. It was part of his Welcome Project exhibition "Where are we from? What do we eat?" Watercolor paints were supplied so that participants / readers could capture their memories of and reflections upon an evening of sharing food and stories.
Cincinnati’s Table is a series of dinners held in different communities around the city. Each meal has a theme introduced by an artist through an interactive artwork or installation. Meals are prepared by an immigrant or refugee in order to start conversations across many groups and to bridge divides within our city.
The Welcome Project is a social enterprise that empowers marginalized and at-risk refugees and immigrants in Cincinnati by providing jobs, education, and community. The Welcome Project is a project of Wave Pool. More information can be found at www.welcomecincinnati.org
