Making is an evening that brings together two of Launceston’s great loves: art and food. Design Tasmania will become a living, moving gathering place where food and performance exist alongside each other, each feeding the other, each amplified by those experiencing it. Cocktail style and in constant motion, this is an event built for discovery. Circulate, taste, watch, talk. There is no fixed seat and no single vantage point. The experience unfolds differently for everyone who moves through it. Lead artists Emma Porteus (Live Art Curator) and Danielle Lefrancois of Hubert and Dan (Lead Food Artist) have curated the evening together, treating food and performance as equally weighted creative forms. Their collaboration draws on Launceston’s UNESCO City of Gastronomy designation and positions culinary creation as a practice demanding the same technical skill, creative vision, and cultural knowledge as any other artform. The result is an experience for audiences who seek out the niche, the sensory, and the emotionally rich. Come hungry for more than food.
