Historical food exhibit opens Jan. 24

Florida fishermen bring in a haul in the early 1900s. Local seafood is one of the topics addressed in the “Red White & Food’’ exhibit.

A food exhibit celebrating the nation’s 250th anniversary opens Jan. 24 in St. Lucie Village and will run through the end of the year.

The exhibit, called “Red, White & Food” held at the old St. Lucie School, 2501 Old Dixie Highway, is presented by the Fellsmere-based Florida Remembered Society with funding provided by Florida Humanities and the Smithsonian Institution’s Museum on Main Street program.
