Eat the Landscape: A Dinner Performance

Police Athletic League 31 Franklin St, Fall River, MA, United States

Honoring CANI’S mission to connect the Islands and their diaspora, Fabric curates a special program that showcases examples of dynamic happenings in the Azorean cultural ecosystem. Conceived as a dinner-performance, participants will be invited to "eat the landscape" of the island, immersed by the sounds of four of the most prominent musicians in the archipelago, who have come together as Cavalo Marinho for this one night. The menu will be crafted by food creative Catarina Ferreira and set designed by architect Nuno Pimenta. We will have beautiful Portuguese wine and cocktails served and created by BAÌ„S. This dinner will subvert traditional dining by inviting our guests to move around the food installation-gathering and foraging the ephemeral island as an act of communal experience. Local and imported goods from the Acores will accompany one another in a harmonious feast of traditional and contemporary dishes. We will have tables for those that need to sit and hightop rounds scattered about the room (think cocktail party!) If you have any allergies or sensitivities, please reach out to info@fabricfallriver.com so we can provide you with more detailed information of the menu as we move closer to the date. Please join us in an unforgettable night! […]
