The Kitchen Table Archive(KTA)
The Kitchen Table Archive(KTA) is a shared shelf for what usually stays at home: the stories told while cooking, the recipes written on the back of envelopes, the songs and voices recorded between neighbours, and the small prints we make together. Everything here was given by someone who sat at the table with us. Stay as long as you like, read, listen and leaf through.
