70 x 7 The Meal, act XXXIV was a collaboration between Mural Arts and internationally renowned, Paris-based artists, Lucy + Jorge Orta. This 34th in the Orta's ongoing series of ritual meals staged throughout the world, gathered a diverse group of people around a communal table to meet, discuss and debate the politics of food production and the role heirloom foods can play in creating a healthier ecology and food system.

The project was recognized by Americans for the Arts Public Art Network (PAN) Year in Review which annually recognizes outstanding public art projects that represent the most compelling work for the year from across the country.
