"A World of Sweets in Washington State"


2012-14 Speakers Bureau: Julia Harrison from Humanities Washington on Vimeo.

"A World of Sweets in Washington State" 

From bienenstich to b�nh xu x�, marzipan to mochi, the diverse range of sweets we enjoy across Washington state reveals much about our shared history and culture.  Each sweet tells a story: ingredients illustrate trade routes and trends, recipes record migration patternsspecial forms point to special occasions. This mouth-watering, thought-provoking presentation explores the ways in which sweets reflect how individuals and communities celebrate, adapt and interact.  
 
For the next two years, I'll be offering this talk through Humanities Washington Speakers Bureau.  Interested in attending a free public presentations?  Please take a look at my schedule.   Interested in having me speak at your venue?  Humanities Washington sponsors this presentation for qualified groups; check out these application guidelines.  And should you want to find out about something other than sweets (really??)
