Cookbook Open Call

About the Open Call

We invite you to write or send us a recipe! We are compiling a collection of shared recipes by artists and creatives for an upcoming publication. As a collaboration we are interested in the intimacy of connecting over meals, how a method of cooking or the significance of ingredients shapes our sense of self, bonding us to others and affecting how we navigate through the world. As part of this we are thinking about how sharing a recipe is a way to encounter and understand another person. We would love to meet you through your recipe. Tell us any recipe with significance to you, elaborate or simple, meaningful or casual. It could be your in-studio quick bite, a hyperfixation, special occasion, childhood favorite or your dinner party centerpiece! We welcome additional descriptions, stories and contexts. We would also love to know how the recipe exists for you: is it in a cookbook, on your notes app, written on a scrap of paper or just in your mind? Feel free to send us documentation of how it’s recorded, as well as photos of the dish itself.

What is Offered

Opportunity for artists and creatives to have their recipes published in a quarterly publication. Each publication will include approximately 10 recipes.
