Creative Dundee and The Scotland Food and Drink Network are delighted to bring you The MIX IN on 5th May, a new event to connect, showcase and inspire local food, drink, creative and digital businesses.

We may work with different raw ingredients, materials and tools, but we all have to continually innovate and inject creative thinking into our businesses to keep our products, services and experiences relevant.

The MIX IN will give you the chance to show your work, connect with others and hear a number of Pecha Kucha talks on a range of topics including the art of creating memorable experiences, design and branding, being a digital native, and the exciting intersection of food and art.

Pecha Kucha presenters include:

Open Call for Creatives: open call for visual artists, designers and makers. All disciplines welcome!

What would be your ideal meal? Is it about the ingredients? The way it looks? The people you share it with? The place you can find it? The process of making it?

Using all kind of techniques and materials (edible or not), we invite you to illustrate your ideal meal. Your artwork doesn’t have to be composed of authentic food and drinks and if you’d like, include the recipe!

Your artwork will exhibited on the night and there will be prizes too!

Food, Drink and Hospitality businesses: please do bring along tasters, samples and give demonstrations on the night – if you’d like to do this please contact gillian@creativedundee.com. We’ll also be showcasing all of your products and services at the event in a unique way – more details will be sent to you after register to attend!

As the local region develops as a creative and foodie destination, there will be plenty of opportunities during the evening to share your own ideas, develop collaborations and even taste some local produce.

The venue for the event is the stunning barn, The Byre on the Inchyra Estate near Perth. It has vaulted timber roofs, rough stone walls, original stone cattle troughs, and the old sunken cattle court; and although rustic it has now been fully renovated and lovingly restored complete with state of the art technology and lighting.
