Arts & Culture

This Engrained is Our Story debut celebrates the voices of our state’s indigenous seed keepers and heritage grain producers. The food justice non-profit Revolutionary Grains spent the past two years weaving a collective story of how resilient our food system is, if we look beyond the industrial grain complex. Revolutionary Grains archives this resilience in a quilted seed bank: Engrained is Our Story. Now, they share this story with you.

Join Town Hall and Revolutionary Grains for an evening of agricultural dances, song, and oral storytelling. Witness for the first time the completed seed bank squares. Taste catered bites that use the ingredients preserved in Engrained is Our Story. Make art that will be woven into the borders of the quilted seed bank. Walk away with community and actionable hope.

Presented by Town Hall Seattle and Revolutionary Grains.
