In his iconic Community Meal events, Jones brings forth stories of food in an artful experience across a shared table that exposes our differences and inequities, illuminates our similarities and connections, and builds bridges of understanding between people. The first CREATE: The Community Meal was curated for two thousand guests on a half-mile of Victoria Street in St. Paul’s Frogtown Neighborhood, produced in partnership with Public Art Saint Paul. The artist has since brought the project to Grand Rapids, where it won the Grand Juried Prize for ArtPrize Nine in 2017, and to Indianapolis in a 2019 commission by Newfields (Indianapolis Art Museum).
