Art About Agriculture Competition and Touring Exhibition 2022: The Sustainable Feast OPEN CALL FOR ART! The 39th annual Art About Agriculture Competition and Touring Exhibition invites all artists from the Pacific Northwest to celebrate the region’s sustainable, diverse, and innovative food. Working closely with Oregon State University’s Food Innovation Center, this year’s open call asks artists to reflect on food, including production of ingredients, preparation of food, food packaging, cooking food, sharing meals, dining, and presentation. We are also encouraging exploration of important food topics such as environmental impact, food waste reduction, nose-to-tail cooking, food ethics, local foods, food for medical needs, reduced waste food packaging solutions, plant varieties for enjoyment and disease resistance, sustainable fisheries, grassland management, food science, and nutrition among many others. To learn more about this open call for art, including research articles, tour venues, dates, and submission details, please visit: https://agsci.oregonstate.edu/art/art-shows/sustainable-feast-open-call
