Underbelly Arts to Launch New Supper Club

The brains behind Sydney's experimental wonderland of in-progress art, Underbelly Arts, are marking the start of their 2015 festival season with a brand new supper club. Straightforwardly dubbed SUPPER, the crew's brand new event is being pitched as a 'fete of food, art and conversation' in Redfern this May.

Inspired by the sparkling, idea-generating conversations that come from sharing food with top notch folks, Underbelly Arts are inviting keen beans to head along to Redfern Town Hall on May 15 for a specially-programmed supper by Sydney chefs, artists and collectives. ACME owner/co-founder/head chef Mitch Orr will be creating some predictably delicious noms, while Newtonians Young Henrys will provide the brewskis.

But it's not all nourishment for the belly. It'll be the first time you'll get to meet the artists participating in the 2015 Underbelly Arts Festival and Lab. Beth Dillon, Kieran Bryant and Lachlan Herd (otherwise known as performance collective 110%) will be there, playing with the concepts of art and leisure. Also suppering will be The Guerilla Museum, a live art production house working in experimental, immersive theatre; large-scale spatial intervention artist Biljana Jancic; and Megan Alice Clune, artist and founder of World's Only magazine (hinging around contemporary art and music). It's not every day you get to dine next to an artist. Come up with something outlandish to start the conversation off with and go from there.

Underbelly Arts' SUPPER is happening at 8pm on Friday, May 15 at Redfern Town Hall. Tickets are $30 (including all food and drink), available over here.
