He previously participated in the Ozarks: Faces and Facets of a Region program at the 2023 Festival. The Smithsonian Folklife Festival Foodways sessions on June 28 are presented in collaboration with the american-food-history-project American Food History Project, based at the National Museum of American History. The project explores American history through the lens of food and drink and invites individuals and communities to gather on-site and online for conversations and experiences that link the past, present, and future of food. The Food History team is honored to join Smithsonian colleagues in celebrating the National Museum of the American Indian through Festival programming focused on traditional systems of knowledge and featuring Indigenous chefs and food cultures.
