Step into COMEAL: An immersive archive of our shared memories of food, backyard parties, and culdesac bike rides. Filmed + Edited by @kasuebu

COMEAL: a space where food, art, and storytelling converged to honor the journeys that have always shaped community-rooted cultures. It comes from how many of us first found community: chasing the ice cream truck, backyard pop-ups, neighborhood markets, corner food stands, or sitting at a tía’s, abuelita’s, or Matriarch’s table where love was measured in portions and stories simmered with the food. These served as living archives of culture, lived experience, and lasting bonds formed around food. Thank you to @vivaphx , our partners, collaborators, volunteers, and 175+ attendees for making this evening possible.
