Portraits in Icing: The Intersection of Representation, Race, and Cookies

Portraits in Icing: The Intersection of Representation, Race, and Cookies

Presented by Senator John Heinz History Center at Online/Virtual Space

While the Smithsonian’s Portraits of Pittsburgh exhibition at the Heinz History Center is filled with a range of portrait styles, none are as unique as the portraits that Pittsburgh artist Jasmine Cho paints onto cookies.

Join Jasmine for a portrait demonstration and conversation about her unique combination of cookie art and social justice in a virtual program hosted by the Heinz History Center. Explore how Jasmine uses cookies to initiate conversations on race, creating intricate portraits of important Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders and giving representation to a historically underrepresented community.
