ArtsWest will be hosting the inaugural reading of Those Who Feed Us, an original devised theatrical-event celebrating food solidarity and awareness of the (un)seen hands that put food on our plates. Produced by volunteer mutual aid group WashMasks, the event is a community gathering of shared memories, dramatic readings, and facilitated public conversations that connect the food we eat to the people that made this happen.

Admission is free, with donations from this pay-what-you-can event going towards WashMasks’ yearly Heart of Washington campaign, serving several farmworker communities across Washington state. Generated funds will go towards purchasing culturally responsive food and books for farmworkers and their communities for the holiday season; those who feed us deserve care and joy. Additional recipient organizations include Nuestra Casa, CAFE, and Familias Unidas por las Justicias, serving migrant communities in Sunnyside, Wenatchee, Burlington, and others across the state.
