On Sunday, June 4th, 2023 at 3 PM, Kim Ye will be giving a performative lecture at The Greenhouse Project on food, fertility, and border control through an analysis of the typical Costco shopper: a 39 y/o Asian American married woman who has a 4-degree or higher level of education, and makes over $125k/year. Their performance will pose the question: what can this demographic tell us about the consumption of, and consumption by, Asian bodies in the United States? 

The Greenhouse Project, located at the Center for Agroecology at UCSC at 152 Farm Rd, Santa Cruz CA, is an intergenerational community space that centers art, food, and climate justice. The site features an outdoor exhibition, classroom, and performative space, as well as a 1-acre native plant garden. This event is part of The Greenhouse Project’s inaugural Spring Series that culminates in an opening ceremony on June 8th.
