What in the World of Pie?

Every year, we include a thematic pie contest category inspired by our venue. Erica Jones, assistant curator of African Art at UCLA's Fowler Museum invites contestants this year to submit their "World Pies" that explore global arts and cultures.

For lattice crust inspiration, she suggests the "eye-dazzler" textiles in the museum's current exhibition, Treasured Textiles from the American Southwest: The Durango Collection. Or a forthcoming exhibit on ancient Columbian ceramics could also be a jumping off point for World Pies.
