Food Font - New video and an upcoming event in my hometown!

Update #4 · Aug 13, 2012 · comment

Hello,

Thanks everyone for all the support and getting the word out about Food Font.  We just reached the 10% funding mark - with 20 days to go.

I just posted a video from the Food Font activity that was done at the Cleveland Institute of Art last Spring.  Students, faculty and staff worked to create 2 food alphabets: The CIA Vending machine food alphabet (made of food from the vending machines) and The CIA Packed Lunch alphabet (made of food from food from packed lunches.)

You can see the CIA Food Font event video on Vimeo online. 

I am excited to bring Food Font to the farmers market in Cleveland that I go to regularly this weekend.  Food Font will be at the Shaker Square Farmers Market this Saturday from 8am - 12 noon.  You can read more on the Facebook event page.  If you are in the area - come stop by and make a letter and say "hi!" 

Why not play and write with your food?

Thanks!

Kristen Baumlier
