Overview
The 30 Takes Thirty project takes place in one of the biggest cultural mosaics in the world, Toronto, ON. Our goal is make sure that we do not become a melting pot, but rather to teach people to respect and appreciate what is different and beautiful about other cultures. Our plan is:
- To hold weekly classes for students and their parents at local libraries and Loblaws superstores (for kitchen facilities)
- Bring in guest speakers from whichever locations we are studying at the time to teach us about where they are from. (someone the group can relate to not just someone who looks good on paper. E.g. A mother, father, recent immigrant)
- To have the full cultural experience by making and tasting foods from these countries;
- To ultimately encourage travel to the places we have studied for the lessons to completely hit home.
