Edinburgh Green Tease: Art+Culture+Food with The Dinner Lab
Event Information
Description
Please join us for our next Edinburgh Green Tease on Wednesday 25th February from 4-6pm. At this month’s Green Tease, Allison Palenske (CCS social media officer and MFA candidate at ECA) will be presenting her work to-date on her project The Dinner Lab, a platform for the investigation of the cultural and ecological histories of food production.
We will meet at the Edinburgh Larder Café (15 Blackfriars Street, Edinburgh EH1 1NB) at 4pm to begin an artist-led walking tour of the locations where the city’s markets once thrived, combined with tasty nibbles from local producers. The walking tour will conclude at Tent Gallery with a discussion about the artist’s role in food systems thinking, also offering participation in the final session of URBANE- an interdisciplinary participatory exhibition exploring our urban relationship to food.
This session will provide a glance into Allison’s work-in-progress, offering an opportunity to contribute your thoughts toward the future of the project!
As always, Green Tease is open to anyone who's interested in how the arts can help contribute to a more sustainable city so please pass this on to anyone else you think might like to join us.
Please RSVP by 24th February. We look forward to seeing you there!
This Green Tease Gathering comes just before the Green Art Lab Alliance General Meeting in Glasgow, 12-14 March 2015. We will share more details about how to participate in the final day of this meeting at Green Tease, so come along if you are interested!
