This thesis aims to promote living locally through interdisciplinary exchange between art
and food. Through the integration of artist studios, food shops, galleries, and a farmers’
market, this project endeavours to defi ne a new relationship between art, craft, food, and
marketplace.
Two theories are argued in this thesis: fi rst, that there exists a need in today’s society
for people to forge stronger relationships with their local communities; and second, that
integrating food and art benefi ts each programme respectively, as well as the community.
This thesis is located in the small liberal arts community of Sackville, New Brunswick,
Canada. By situating the project in an existing heritage building on Bridge Street, it refocuses urban life back to the downtown core and addresses current trends of businesses
migrating to the periphery.
