[GBW] Los Angeles Edible Book Art Show
ART YOU CAN
EAT!
Fifth Annual Edible-Book Tea Serves Up Food for Thought:
A Cornucopia of Books to Whet Your Appetite
WHAT: A banquet of books will be served up for the
public’s viewing---and feasting---pleasure
at the Fifth Annual International Edible
Book Tea. The event is part art exhibit, part tea
party---and you can eat the art because it
’s made of food instead of paper.
WHAT’S TO SEE: Children’s classics, detective novels, biographies,
romances---
every type of book imaginable will be
sculpted from a smorgasbord of foodstuffs.
Imagine chocolate shoes whose tongues
tell tales. Or, baklava books with pages made
of filo dough. In past years, artists
have designed text on mobiles made from fruit roll-
ups that looked like stained glass and
written poetry on growing lettuce, which was
harvested for a salad.

Tea and books served at 4 p.m.)

7377 Santa Monica Boulevard, West
Hollywood.
