Final Meal Request #237
A Project by Lucky Pierre
May 20, 2013 at 7pm

Final Meals is an ongoing community-based performance, event, and video installation. Each final meal requested by Texas death row inmates and published online by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice since 1982 is prepared, consumed, and filmed. To date, Lucky Pierre has re-created 197 of the 310 final meals published by the State of Texas.

For the presentation of this project at the c3:initiative, Lucky Pierre will screen selections from the archived final meal videos, prepare Final Meal Request #237 and host a community dinner, and present on this ongoing and expansive project. 

            Final Meal Request #237 - 
            December 4th, 1996



            2 grilled cheese sandwiches, french fries, ketchup, 
            2 boiled eggs, 2 cinnamon rolls with icing, 2 cans of 
            grape juice, and coffee

This event is free and open to the public, but space is limited. Please RSVP to info@luckypierre.org.

Lucky Pierre, based in Chicago, is a collaborative group working in performance, writing, and visual forms. Lucky Pierre creates structures for engagement with various publics. In these forms, we explore complex issues and ideas (political, aesthetic, social) in ways that accommodate a wide range of experience, styles and approaches. For more info, please see www.luckypierre.org.

We at c3:initiative humbly acknowledge that our programming is being held on the traditional lands of the Multnomah, Kathlamet, Clackamas, bands of Chinook, Tualatin Kalapuya, Molalla and many other Tribes who made their homes along the Columbia (Wimahl) and Willamette (Whilamut) rivers.

​We take this opportunity to offer respectful recognition to the Native communities in our region, and to those who have stewarded this land throughout the generations. Please take a moment to consider the many legacies of violence, displacement, migration, and settlement that bring us together here today. We recognize the continual displacement of Native people by the United States and are committed to working to dismantle the ongoing effects of this settler colonial legacy. Please join us in respecting the contributions Indigenous peoples have, and continue to make to our community, country, and world.
