Food critic Charles Ferruzza feasts on historic menus
Join us on Sunday, Nov. 16, as local food critic, Charles Ferruzza, will be our community curator at Union Station.
He'll share biting barbs and fresh thoughts about historic menus and food-related items in the Museum's collections.
Ferruzza, Kansas City’s premier restaurant critic for local newspaper and radio stations, will provide a colorful perspective on Kansas City’s food scene and history.
Kansas City’s rich legacy in the food and restaurant industry is recognized in the Museum’s collection. In 1919, the National Restaurant Association was founded in Kansas City.
The Community Curator Program
The Community Curator program of Kansas City Museum invites historians and history educators to share their perspectives on artifacts they choose from the Museum collection. This provides fresh insight about artifacts and collections of Kansas City Museum and Union Station, and welcomes diverse input from the Kansas City history community.
Community Curator lectures are presented the third Sunday of each month at Union Station Kansas City, allowing the actual artifact to be presented with the observations of our Community Curator. The event is free and open to the public.
Union Station is located at 30 W. Pershing, Kansas City, Missouri. If you’d like to attend this free special presentation at Union Station, please contact the Museum at (816) 483-8300.
