GYST DO IT! With Thank You For Coming
Guests on the show are two core members of Thank You For Coming, Laura Naguera and Blake Besharian.
TYFC is an artist-run restaurant that is home to an interdisciplinary artist residency program. Each month, a new artist is selected to work on their ideas as well as make and serve food in the context of their proposed project.
Past residencies include The Heretics Kitchen presented by artist collaborative The Order, exploring food, fiber, labor and feminist history through the presentation of famine foods – simple peasant staples of bread, potatoes, beans, vegetables, and ritual feasts.
With Special Meal, diners chose from a menu of “last meals” requested by prisoners on death row.
Thank You for Coming is volunteer-run and also hosts workshops, performances and special events. TYFC is located in Atwater Village, Los Angeles and open Wed-Sun. for lunch and dinner.
