EAT with the Exhibit invites you to experience exhibitions through an entirely different sense: taste. This immersive culinary series transforms themes from the new exhibition America 250: Common Threads into a multi-course dining journey, celebrating the diverse stories, traditions, and shared histories that have shaped our nation.

Each dish will draw inspiration from artworks in the exhibition, weaving together ingredients and narratives that echo the connections found across generations. It’s a unique way to enjoy art and cuisine at the same table, offering a flavorful reflection on the threads that connect us.

America 250: Common Threads is organized in partnership with the American Folk Art Museum. This exhibition is part of Handwork: Celebrating American Craft 2026, presented by Craft in America.
