About Cooking Tales

Cooking Tales is an ensemble event with photographs, food and stories to create a space for how storytelling happens in everyday life – not on a stage but as a conversation, or several mini-conversations, around elements that nourish us – visual memories, nourishment through food, joy or sharing and words. Featuring women working with Gauri Raje (storyteller) and Sonja Blietschau (photographer) funded by TRACS and the University of Strathclyde.

Created and led by Gauri Raje, featuring women from Maryhill who have been working with the Village. Suitable for audiences aged 12+.
