Last Thursday we held a sold-out screening of Food Foray at PAM Cut's Tomorrow Theater—our biggest one yet! While this screening was a learning moment for our team on how to step in when inappropriate Q&A questions are asked, it was also a beautiful evening celebrating the resilience of immigrants. Since we missed an educational opportunity during the screening: please don't ask anyone their immigration or citizenship status. It is never appropriate especially in the current political climate.

Celebrate some of the food Embark on delicious food adventures by trying Amalia’s Tetelas de Frijol at Tierra Del Sol (70th & NE Glisan), indulging in the Cola Cola cake from Babushka Russian Deli & Bakery (NE 242nd Dr in Wood Village), or grabbing your own Burmese green tea leaf salad kit from Mingala Market (SE Division & 122nd or SW Canyon Rd)! Find the recipes on our website https://metroeast.org/food-foray/ or on our links in our bio
