Come feast with us! Feast is a meal like no other, inviting children to make gastronomical delights from a pile of most unusual ingredients.

A long table is set with a white cloth, paper plates, and a centre piece of paper flowers. The ingredients are mise en place. Children are invited to fill their imaginations with the dishes of their dreams—food fit for a top restaurant, or a very hungry punter. Gradually the table starts to fill with stringy string pasta, tomato cellophane sauce with a spray of green fabric basil, paper pizza, and tissue sushi. Waiters impeccably dressed in black and white hover to encourage and assist, writing up the mouth-watering menu.

This installation lets children play with materials other than food to make truly delicious, and sometimes really horrible, culinary creations.

This is a drop-in style event—stay for the entire duration and make a banquet or just stop by for a snack, you decide!
