Food, Memory, and Migration

September 17, 2026 @ 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm EDT
$15

Some of the most powerful stories begin around the dinner table 🥢

Join AAJA New York for an evening exploring how food writing helps us understand identity, memory, migration, family history, and culture. From recipes passed down through generations to reporting on the communities behind our favorite dishes, food can tell stories that reach far beyond what’s on the plate.

🎙️We’re excited to welcome:
– @ericjoonho, food columnist and author, @nytimes
– @jilldamatac, @beardfoundation Award nominee and author of Dirty Kitchen
– @buttina, senior reporter, @eater
Moderated by @tina_wangxt

Whether you’re a journalist, writer, foodie, or simply curious about the stories behind what we eat, join us for a conversation about how food writing preserves memory, challenges stereotypes, and deepens our understanding of ourselves and one another.

Register for see address.
