THE CANYONS OF YOUR MIND
THE DESERT OF YOUR GUT


It was a land where bad metaphors stalked, like baby snatching foxes….a ravaged land, where uninspired discourse mingled with unloved morsels, a land desolated by inconsequential art shows, like a stomach stripped raw by cheap wine. 

And then salvation came!  It was as if the land, in its desperation for relief, grew legs and transported itself to a great plateau, high above the tumultuous sea of Hackney Wick….and it was here the rains came (metaphorically, you understand)…a fantastic deluge formed a mighty torrent, engorging the forsaken cranial gorges, englutting the barren guts… exactly the way most events that combine food and art wouldn’t!

On the 30th July, as part of the *Hackney Wicked Art Festival*, the combined talents of *Cosmicmegabrain* (itinerant curators) and the Sit Down Affair (itinerant restauranteurs) will harmonise in an unparalleled event – A Fabulous Dinner Party with Art Music & Performance.

By integrating two detached pursuits, the pleasures of feasting and
encounters with art, we intend to amplify the joy and stimulation of both. Come, all who hunger for sustenance of real substance, for your mind and your stomach and every parched bit of your soul!

The event will take place on the capacious terrace on the 2nd floor, east  wing of Oslo House, situated in the heart of Hackney Wick, overlooking the
throng of the festival-goers. Now in its third year, the Hackney Wick Art Festival is set to be more popular than ever – this event is guaranteed to
be one of the highlights.


For only £10 you can partake of a delicious selection of foods!

ART, FOOD, PERFORMANCE, MUSIC – ONE NIGHT ONLY!

Limited seating so please RSVP to thesitdownaffair@gmail.com

Cosmicmegabrain is an east London-based arts collective, committed to orchestrating innovative events, in the UK and overseas. We aim to provide an alternative and distinct format for presenting art; by unifying disparate artistic practices and media in an integral spectacle, we encourage viewers to become participants in the experience.

The Sit Down Affair came from our mutual obsession with cooking and eating good beautiful food. Us ladies have had many nights partying, drinking, loving and talking with our mouths full so we decided to spread the goodness. We get loads of people together, we cook and serve
amazing dishes with killer music to make The Sit Down Affair the Baddest Dinner Feast Party you'll ever find.
