What’s “Breads of the Creative Cities”?

Breads of the Creative Cities is the current ongoing project of ITKIUS and its partner Tucson City of Gastronomy. The goal of this project is to document and promote the bread baking traditions of UNESCO Creative Cities around the world with the support of Krakow City of Literature, Fabriano, Creative City of Craft and Folk Art, and Puebla, Creative City of Design. They are extending the definition of bread to include any local staple food that plays a culturally significant role in a community’s heritage to include as many UCCN member cities as possible. This project continues the efforts of the Days of Bread event, held in Krakow, Poland for the UCCN XII Annual Meeting in June 2018.
