Cookbook

This year Sacramento Fine Arts Center (Sac Arts) celebrates food and art in two ways. We have a food-themed juried art show this November. Information for that show is available now. We’ve also received a grant to do something unique and creative; an art cookbook. This community art cookbook will be self-published by Sac Arts with assistance from the Sacramento County TOT Grant program. This cookbook will be made up of recipes from multiple individuals and feature artwork from local artists. Sac Arts is looking forward to working with the community to create a publication that celebrates Sacramento’s rich culinary and visual arts sectors.


General Information: Submissions to this cookbook will be open to all residents of the Greater Sacramento Region.

Artists may submit their own art and recipe or partner with one another during the submission process. Only high resolution photos and legible documents will be considered.


Deadline to Submit: August 19, 2023 Late submissions will not be considered. Recipe extension is August 26th.

 

Art Theme and Regulations: Artwork must fit the theme of “Food”. Subject matter can include food, dishes, meals, table settings, still lifes, kitchens, restaurants, farms, and more. Selection of artwork will be at the discretion of Sacramento Fine Arts Center. Some forms of photography may not be accepted. Contact Sac Arts at info@sacfinearts.org for clarification.

Recipe Categories and Regulations: The recipe writer may select multiple categories their recipe would be best suited for. Some categories may include meals (appetizers, breakfast, lunch, dinner), season, raw ingredients (vegetables, fish, beef), and/or cooking techniques. Final categorization and selection of recipes will be at the discretion of Sac Arts.

Sac Arts would like to encourage individuals to submit unique and one of a kind recipes. Chocolate chip cookies are great, but 30 chocolate chip cookie recipes are not as great.

Artists may choose to partner with a friend, chef or restaurant to submit a recipe, but must work with the writer of the recipe to submit the information together.
