New York Public Library: online Thanksgiving project

The New York Public Library just launched a new, online project for Thanksgiving - one of our nation's most popular mid-day meals. The Library is looking for photographs, stories, videos, audio clips of Thanksgiving traditions - the food, the prep, the customs (old and new).

Select entries of entrées (and sides!) will be displayed in a new food exhibition appearing at NYPL in 2012. The focus of the exhibition will be lunch, the mid- meal that work-obsessed, time-obsessed Americans stirred up in their own image nearly 150 years ago.

Any possibilities are welcome and encouraged, whether it's a photograph of the friends surrounding a thanksgiving plate of kimchi or a video featuring the traditional turkey; Appetizers, soup, salad, dessert - we want to see the whole splendid feast.
