Growing Food Justice Across Washington
January 22, 2020
Artists for Food Justice
We’ve invited twelve artists to the table to contribute their unique perspectives to this vital conversation.
Each month, a Washington artist interprets our theme through their unique cultural lens and lived experience. These visual stories debut across our digital platforms on the first of each month, sparking deeper dialogue about food’s role in building just, healthy communities.
By weaving together artistic expression and community voices, we’re creating new pathways for understanding hunger not as individual circumstance, but as a systemic issue requiring collective action. These artworks serve as powerful anchors for conversation, inspiration, and change.
