Food For Thought Exhibit Opening at Baltimore Museum of Industry

Opening February 10 through the end of the year, Food For Thought is an interactive exhibit at the Baltimore Museum of Industry highlighting Baltimore's unsung local heroes of the pandemic: Food and Nutrition Service workers in Baltimore City Public Schools.

The exhibit features worker portraits by J.M. Giordano accompanied by interviews recorded by Radio Producer Aaron Henkin.

"The Baltimore Museum of Industry (BMI) explores these issues in the new exhibition Food For Thought highlighting local unsung heroes of the pandemic: Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) workers at Baltimore City Public Schools (City Schools).  These workers kept communities fed while schools were closed and learning transitioned to virtual in 2020-2021. Baltimore City FNS staff prepare and distribute more than 88,000 meals every day and served more than 11 million meals in the 2021-22 school year."

The exhibit also features hands-on and interactive features.

"Food For Thought is supported by the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience, and was made possible in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services, the Baltimore City Public Schools Food and Nutrition Services department, McCormick and Co., Southway Builders, the Edward St. John Foundation, Safeway, First National Bank, Saval Foodservice, Freestate Electric, and the Delaplaine Foundation."
