Julia Child\u2019s Kitchen at the Smithsonian<\/em>, the exhibition that allows a peek into Julia Child\u2019s legendary Cambridge, Mass., kitchen, is Sunday, Jan. 8, 2012.<\/p>\n<p>When Child moved back to her home state of California in 2001, she donated the contents of her 14-foot by 20-foot home kitchen, including small utensils, personal cookbooks, the stainless steel kitchen sink and her six-burner Garland commercial range. The kitchen, which Child used as the set of three television shows and as the testing ground for many recipes featured in her cookbooks, is composed of more than 1,200 individual pieces. The museum staff packed and catalogued the entire kitchen, then reassembled it in the museum exactly as it was in Child\u2019s home.<\/p>\n<p>The museum will reopen the kitchen within a new exhibition focusing on food and wine in America. This exhibition is scheduled to open late summer 2012. The museum must move the kitchen to prepare for upcoming renovations to its west exhibition wing.
