Who are you?
Active dates: 
June 2010-present
Location: 
New York City
Primary audience: 
Artists, creatives, non-artists and non-creatives, who would like to cook, be around food and eat around a table with people.
Guiding principles: 
Combining the concept of the potluck, where individuals privately prepare dishes and then share them with the group; and the environment of the critical classroom, where the collective whole actively engages in observation, examination and analysis, the Community Cooking Club acts as a site of working, exploring, tasting, talking and eating together. The CCC follows a lateral structure: participants separate into groups and help each other follow the instructions and recipe for each dish, with the organizer of the class visiting each group to check on their progress and answer any questions.
