The Edible Book: Eating between the Lines

Anonymous Patron writes “Sponsered by the Albany Institute of History and Art, The Edible Book festival is an international celebration of the printed word. This year Albany celebrates the Edible Book on Sunday, April 17, 2005 from 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. in the Rice House of the Albany Institute of History & Art. Guests are invited to participate by creating and/or tasting edible dishes that somehow relate to books. Entries are displayed and photographs taken, then these edible books are consumed. A highlight of this year’s event will be a light-hearted contest judging entries based upon creativity, whimsy, and originality with our celebrity judge Doug Blackburn, Food Writer with the Times Union.
