The Flagler Museum's newest program series, called Together, at the Table, is taking over the Museum's annual Whitehall Lecture Series this year to present special lectures focused on food. The following "Food Talks" will present an over-arching celebration of people and foodways that are the foundations of Florida's cultural heritage and the American South's regional cuisine legacy.


• February 6 - "Southern Foodways: Florida Cuisine" presented by Anna O. Hamilton will focus on Florida foodways and systems, including the relationship between Henry Flagler's Florida East Coast Railway system and Florida agriculture of the late 1800s. Hamilton, a former journalist, is an oral historian, audio producer, and foodways scholar from northeast Florida who is currently a doctoral student in the department of American Studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.


• February 27 - "Southern Foodways: Creole Cuisine" presented by Zella Palmer will be a comprehensive lecture that lays the foundation for understanding the cultural history and people of Creole cooking as a defining factor of American South regional cuisine. Palmer, an author, professor, filmmaker, curator and scholar, is the Chair and Director of the Dillard University Ray Charles Program in African-American Material Culture in New Orleans, LA.
