YAMA KITCHEN

This ”social media kitchen” aims to function as a communication hub, and stimulate the exchange of local information through the medium of “food”.

YAMA KITCHEN was launched by a team around Taeko Tsuda, whose activities focus on food and culture, simultaneously at YCAM and in the central shopping district of Yamaguchi City in 2014. For four months between 2014 and 2015, resident artists at YCAM became shop managers for one day each, and their chats with numerous customers during their work at the kitchen were opportunities for exchanging creative ideas revolving around the local art, culture and industry of Yamaguchi.

For a limited period of time, the YAMA KITCHEN now reopens inside YCAM. While providing a shared kitchen space that visitors from the general public are free to use, the program offers food-related workshops, lectures and other events, with staff members and guests staying at YCAM running the kitchen in alternate shifts.
