The Last Supper is an indoor-outdoor multi-media event occuring annually in Brooklyn, NY during the crux of seasonal change at the end of September.

Featuring 13 short films from emerging directors, 13 artworks from budding visual artists, 13 dishes from innovative food artists, and music from 7 talented bands and DJs. The event will be hosted by Teman & Teran Evans. Exhibition continues until October 12th.
Curation. Our occupation of the Landscape is becoming increasingly primed for creative analysis as environmental disasters and socio-economic crisis continue to affect our daily lives. The landscape of this upheaval is represented by ongoing events such as the global food crisis, climate change, and rising health risks due to over consumption. To interpret our environments through creative mediums, with an audience of peers, is to spark a critical conversation, and invite ideas to the table. The Last Supper works explore themes from local to global landscapes and tackle issues of social, emotional, political and geographic importance.
History. What began Four years ago as an intimate word-of-mouth dinner party in a small backyard has evolved organically into what today is known as The Last Supper Festival. The event, which falls in late September-thus symbolically marking a change of seasons-is a multimedia experience that challenges the traditional methods of exhibiting and viewing artwork. Instead of singular artistic moments, the festival presents in concert-just as it originally did at the original backyard dinner party-a range of artistic mediums from local emerging talent including visual art, culinary art, short film, performance, and music-ie: a stimulation of all Five senses. This unique approach to curation blurs the defined creative boundaries, thereby facilitating an exchange and connection between various genres, communities, and audiences.
