Food Radio: Office Hours
Chinatown, NY

For three weeks, we took over a small storefront in Chinatown and interviewed over 40 artists, chefs, designers, musicians, writers, fashion designers, photographers and architects to see how they got started and how they make money in a creative field. We opened the space for workspace, workshops, and just general hanging out. Our goal was for people, especially kids of color, to hear and meet the artists, and to know that a life of creativity was a real and viable option.
