Food, fun and a global perspective at Colorado History Museum

June 2, 2014

Step into the story with a visit to the new exhibit Food: Our Global Kitchen at the Colorado History Museum (1200 Broadway) through Sept. 1, and take a journey around the world and through time. Stroll through an ancient market, cook a virtual meal, peek inside the dining rooms of illustrious individuals, and consider some of the most challenging issues of our time.

Food: Our Global Kitchen explores the complex and intricate food system that brings what we eat from farm to fork. In sections devoted to growing, transporting, cooking, eating, tasting and celebrating, the exhibit illuminates the myriad ways food is produced and transported throughout the world.

Admission is $5 with the purchase of a general admission ticket. Kids 5 and under and History Colorado members are free. Bring in a receipt from any Colorado Whole Foods Market for $2 off admission.

Food: Our Global Kitchen is organized by the American Museum of Natural History, New York (www.amnh.org).

Presented with Whole Foods Market, there’s a working kitchen, which features taste experiments, special guests, demonstrations and samples from Whole Foods Markets’ vendors and partners. Ticket to the Food exhibit is required for entrance to the taste kitchen.

Museum hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday, noon to 5 p.m. Sunday. For more information, go to www.historycoloradocenter.org/plan/foodourglobalkitchen.
