Exciting news! Later this month, our editor Alex Ketchum, will be launching her exhibit on queer cookbooks and recipes. The physical exhibit will be at McGill University from August 19 until December 2021. The digitized exhibit will live on The Historical Cooking Project! There will be a PDF of the exhibit also available later this month.
Thank you to the Archives Gaies du Québec and the Les Archives Lesbiennes du Québec for your contributions of zines to the exhibit. Thank you in particular to Simone Beaudry- Pilotte of the AGQ and Laure Neuville of the ALQ for assisting me in locating recipes within your archives.
Here are some of the cookbooks that will be in the exhibit:

Much more to come soon!
