SUMMARY:Read It and Eat + "DISH" Summer Dinner Party
DESCRIPTION:Register for Read It and Eat! + "DISH" Summer Dinner Party\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				If you cannot attend our events this year (May 20th\, July 24th\, September 23rd)\, you can still submit a recipe for our community cookbook! Email our Programs Coordinator\, Sarah Robbitts-Terry at sarah@portsmouthhistory.org to submit your recipe.  \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				FAQs\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				What is currently in-season?\n				Blueberries\, peaches\, raspberries\, beans\, peas\, beets\, broccoli\, cabbage\, carrots\, cauliflower\, celery\, cucumbers\, corn\, eggplant\, lettuce and salad greens\, onion\, peppers\, potatoes\, scallions\, spinach\, summer squash\, Swiss chard\, tomatoes\, turnips\, rutabagas\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				How many people should my dish serve?\n				We usually have 15-20 people at each Read It and Eat event\, however each of those individuals will all be making a dish! If your recipe serves 4-6\, that should be more than enough. People tend to take small portions so they can try everything.\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Will alcohol be served? Can I use it in a recipe?\n				Per the conditions of the Historical Society’s liquor license with the city\, we do not serve alcohol at these events\, and guests cannot bring alcohol to drink. However\, dishes with cooked alcohol are perfectly fine to bring.\n3S Artspace has a bar and will be serving drinks.\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				How are food allergies handled?\n				We do ask people to provide us with a list of ingredients in their dishes\, but this is a potluck-style dinner with dishes all laid out together on a long table and served family-style. Dishes are prepared at individuals’ homes and cross-contamination cannot be ruled out.\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Are non-alcoholic drinks provided?\n				Yes! In addition to water and seltzer\, we provide fun mocktails for everyone to enjoy!\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Can I plug in my crock pot?\n				Unfortunately\, we do not have enough outlets to accommodate crock pots or other electrical equipment. Dishes must come ready to be served.\n			\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				Learn more about "Dish"\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				About “Dish” at 3S Artspace\nWho prepares the food and who sits at the table? Through drawing and community engagement\, Laura Tanner explores how local foodways define a community’s identity and reflect contemporary challenges that the community is facing\, like food insecurity and climate change. Gathering oral histories from farmers\, chefs\, restaurant patrons\, and home cooks\, her drawings present a visual archive of rituals\, recipes\, and traditions. Alongside works focused on Miami and New Orleans\, the artist will premiere works inspired by the Portsmouth area in the exhibit at 3S Artspace. Her site-specific works examine foodways of the Seacoast\, deepening the understanding of our community\, its economy\, social structures\, political leanings\, and needs.

A few miles offshore\, a lighthouse was established at the southernmost of the Isles of Shoals in 1821. Inland\, three wooden lighthouses were built on Lake Sunapee in the late 1800s to guide steamships full of vacationers to their destinations around the lake. All of these locations have stories to tell of dedicated keepers and their families\, shipwrecks\, rescues\, and much more.
