Jubilee: A Celebration of African American Cooking

in partnership with the Noblesville Diversity Coalition

Join us for a special book study and food tasting in celebration of Black History Month. Registration is required, as space is limited. Be sure to register each person in your party.

Join us for a special book study in celebration of Black History Month. Beginning January 15, stop by the reference desk at the Noblesville Branch to pick up a book study copy of Toni Tipton-Martin's award-winning cookbook, Jubilee: Recipes from Two Centuries of African American Cooking, while supplies last. Named one of the best cookbooks of the year by The New York Times Book Review, NPR, The Atlantic, Chicago Tribune and others, "Jubilee presents techniques, ingredients, and dishes that show the roots of African American cooking—deeply beautiful, culturally diverse, fit for celebration." (quote from publisher)

Read the stories and explore the recipes in the cookbook to prepare for an afternoon of discussion, joy, and celebration through food on February 15.

Following a brief welcome and presentation from Brandi Holmes and Dwayne Thompson of the Noblesville Diversity Coalition, guests at our jubilee will have the opportunity to discuss the rich history and traditions of African American cuisine within our community and beyond. We will offer samples of select recipes from the Jubilee cookbook prepared by a local chef, so you can experience the flavors for yourself.

Registration is required, as space is limited. Be sure to register each person in your party. All ages are welcome.
