merging the worlds of art, science and cuisine, discover knowledge about the pollinators and their entanglement with our world
Wednesday, 15 May
Start: 6.30 pm
We'd like to invite you to the highlight of our upcoming exhibition 'Pollinators’: an exclusive dinner experience set amidst the backdrop of the gallery, devoted to the fascinating world of pollinators. Merging the worlds of art, science and cuisine, this evening is rich with knowledge about the insects and their entanglement with our world.
You are welcome to engage in insightful conversations with fellow guests and experts from the field, sharing ideas and experiences across the table as you enjoy a vegan three-course dinner served by the chefs from Kaati Kookt. Every bite is a celebration of plants and foods that owe their existence to the work of pollinators.
The chefs Zoë Jungmann and Björn Weesjes are as passionate about sustainability as they are about flavor. Each dish is skillfully crafted to not only nourish the soul, but also your sense of appreciation for the insect world and its impact on our agricultural system.
Before the culinary journey begins, deepen your understanding with an introductory lecture held by Menno Schilthuizen, evolutionary biologist, ecologist, and scientist at Naturalis Biodiversity Center in Leiden. Learn about different pollinator species, the challenges they face in today's world, and the crucial role they play in sustaining our planet's biodiversity.
Carefully curated drinks, poured by d'Sjoemmelier will complement the flavors of the evening. Your welcome drink is included in the entrance price, more can be purchased by the glass. There are enough (non-) alcoholic options. Still and sparkling water is included.
Know that your participation supports the cause dear to our hearts. All profits from this evening will be donated to the Bee Foundation. By supporting their mission to strengthen the bond between humans and nature, you're contributing to the creation and management of bee oases for wild bees, bumblebees and butterflies.
Be part of this one of a kind dinner experience, alongside many walks of life over the shared mission to bridge the gap between nature and humans.
