M.E.S.A. (Museum Enrichment Series for All) featuring Bake It Till You Make It LIVE!

Join Lynn Museum/LynnArts on the second Wednesday of each month at noon for M.E.S.A. (Museum Enrichment Series for All). This virtual lecture series covers topics such as wellness, genealogy, and current events and features local experts, authors, community members, and others.

For our October M.E.S.A., join us for Bake it Till You Make It: Live! An interactive cooking demonstration with mental health advocate and author Dayna Altman, as she shares her mental health recovery story while baking. The founder and sole operator of Bake It Till You Make It LLC, Dayna knows that using food as an entry point for mental health conversations is a way to make “difficult conversations” more palatable and to help create more authentic change. So bake along in your kitchen (a very easy recipe) if your schedule allows, or listen in as Dayna deconstructs stigma using ingredients as metaphors to inspire us all.

Ingredients needed to bake along:

  • 1 box graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 cans sweet and condensed milk
  • 1 bag chocolate chips
  • 9×13 pan
  • Mixing bowl
  • Mixing spoon

The conversation will take place over Zoom and live-streamed on Facebook.
