Feeling hungry?
This month, HopeDance Magazine caters to folks with a love of food and a taste for progressive politics.
Tonight, a panel of speaker discusses local food and farmers following a screening of “Deconstructing Supper,” about restaurateur Joseph Bishops’s search for regional, nutritious food.
Among the speakers is Katy Budge, author of The Tribune’s “Local Flavors” column.
Finger food will be provided by Central Coast businesses including Clark Valley Organic Farm, American Flatbread Pizza and SLO-town Creamery.
That event starts tonight at 6 p.m. at the San Luis Obispo City-County Library, 995 Palm St. in San Luis Obispo. A donation of $5 is suggested.

Later this month, the magazine screens “Slow Food Revolution” at American Flatbread Pizza in Los Alamos.
Dinner will be served at 6:15 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 30, followed by the film and a discussion led by HopeDance’s Bob Banner.
The menu features tuna confit and shell bean salad, pulled pork or potato-and-leek flatbread, and an apple tart with honey ice cream. Tickets are $25.
To make a reservation, call 344-4400. Learn more at American Flatbread’s Web site.
