Kristina Wong
Food Bank Influencer
Thu Oct 12 | 7 p.m. | Mandell Theater
Prepare for this sneak preview of Pulitzer Finalist Kristina Wong’s newest work-in process!
During the historic joint labor strikes of SAG-AFTRA and the WGA in summer 2023, Kristina partnered with food bank World Harvest to provide free groceries to actors and writers until the end of the strike. In the new show, she will be creatively intervening with the food bank as:
• An Immersive Experience,
• A functional food bank,
• A commentary on systems and distribution,
• A treatise on food insecurity,
• An illustration of how AI will impact humans, particularly those working in the arts.
Artist discussion and feedback session immediately following the performance. Contributions from our audience may very well find their way into Kristina’s world premiere at ASU Gammage in Fall 2024!
