FOOD: Celebrating Conch Cuisine
Building on the foundation of the original Smithsonian Food History exhibitions—which celebrate the powerful role food plays in shaping human culture, identity, and society—the Key West edition brings a regional focus to the story, diving deep into the culinary traditions of the Florida Keys. This special exhibit highlights the origins, evolution, and ongoing influence of Conch Cuisine, offering visitors an immersive look into how food has defined life in this unique island chain.
