Bread & Salt: Closing Reception

Join us for the closing reception of Bread & Salt at the 20*20 House Gallery! Please join us on October 4th from 12pm - 4pm for the closing reception of Bread & Salt! Bread & Salt Food as Memory + Connection is a community-centered arts initiative presented by the Lansdowne Economic Development Corporation (LEDC) and 20×20 House Gallery. Inspired by the long-standing symbolism of bread and salt as gestures of hospitality and welcome, the project explores how food shapes memory, identity, migration, culture, ritual, care, and belonging. Public gallery hours are Saturdays and Sundays, noon - 4 pm. This exhibition is organized by the LEDC's Art Committee, a volunteer group of The Lansdowne Economic Development Corporation. The mission of the Lansdowne Arts Committee is to create, foster, and promote Lansdowne's identity as a vibrant and inspiring artistic community. The Lansdowne Art Committee is dedicated to nurturing creative expression, enhancing community engagement, stimulating economic growth, preserving and celebrating Lansdowne's diversity, and cultivating arts education and access. The 20*20 House is a Lansdowne Borough -owned property. Originally a residential home built in the early 19th century, the 20*20 House has been transformed into a community space with gallery spaces on 2 floors as well as a yoga studio.
