Artist Linda Abdullah is collaborating with Cedars Palestine Kitchen to share recipes from her homeland Palestine. Food recipes in Palestine are often passed down through generations of women in the family. Each region in Palestine will prepare the same dish in their own distinct way, which adds the unique flavours shaped by land offerings and geographies. Linda has collected recipes from Palestinian women in her life and compiled them in her own home-cook notebook, sharing two recipes in the first gathering of Community Kitchen Dinners.

Inspired by artist projects responding to the imperial occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan including Enemy Kitchen and Combat Kitchen, Community Kitchen Dinners will feature conversations around food, memory, migration from regions the US/Israel empire is currently

Proceeds from the dinner will be split between two initiatives:

1. Support Sudki’s field kitchen operating in Rafah.

2. Help bring the artworks of 14 Palestinian artists from Gaza to Chicago for my upcoming curatorial project, New Forms of Survival, opening November 7th at Watershed Art & Ecology.
