For the Pan Pop-Up Restaurant and Exhibition

Overview

Indulge your inner heathen this month with an unholy trinity of decadent food, wine and art. Event organisers Many Hands have collaborated with a troupe of local talent to put on For the Pan, a candlelit pop-up restaurant and art installation featuring as part of Sydney's annual Art & About.

In the name of all things pagan, chef Mathew Alcorso will be experimenting with ancient cooking techniques and ingredients, preparing a three-course dinner over hot coals. Wash it all down with craft beers by Yullis Brews, the Surry Hills hang-out's new brew, or make merry with Harkham Wines, Roman-style — the winery will be providing an exclusive drop, specially fermented in a clay amphora for the event.

After dinner, the art space will come into its own, with the doors opening to the public and a variety of works by local creatives on display. Think jewellery, ceramics, collage, textiles, painting, prints, performance art and floristry. Drinks and DJs will be on hand to ensure this not-so-pious party continues well into the night.

The ticketed banquet will run from 6pm to 9pm, with doors opening freely to the public afterwards.
