LATE at the Museum: The Taste of Inequality

Overview

No exhibitions will come to life to create havoc, though a lot will be going on. Until November, Auckland Museum are hosting a range of late night evenings with musicians, performances, panels and special exhibits.

Next on the lineup is The Taste of Inequality. Chaired by Associate Professor and Head of Pacific Studies Damon Salesa, a panel of experts will discuss the parameters around the availability of food in Auckland's varying suburbs and how food can possibly bring communities together. The panel includes: Dr Lisa Marriott, professor of taxation; Dame Diane Robertson, former leader of Auckland City Mission; Lisa King, co-owner of Eat My Lunch; and Dr Teulia Percival, senior lecturer at the School of Population Heath.

With a delicious menu, selection of drinks and a great venue with views of Auckland City, the Museum is a prime spot to host an interesting talk on the truth of "food deserts" and if the concept is here to stay in our country.

The evening will be rounded out by a performance of Tom Sainsbury's play Sunday Roast, directed by Cameron Rhodes.
