Cooking Demonstration and Tasting with Celebrity Chef Mark Olive

Mark Olive is Australia’s most renowned Indigenous chef. He has been cooking for more than 30 years, and his charismatic style and creative approach to food have earned him an esteemed reputation and a large following in Australia and around the world.

Olive is also a host of cooking, lifestyle, and travel shows, and his series, The Outback Café, is seen in living rooms across the globe. He has a passion for fusing native and Indigenous Australian ingredients with contemporary cooking techniques to create a dynamic and unique gastronomic philosophy.
 
To celebrate the Harvard Art Museums’ special exhibition Everywhen: The Eternal Present in Indigenous Art from Australia, on view until September 18, 2016, Olive will offer a cooking demonstration and tasting featuring Indigenous Australian ingredients.

Cosponsored by the Peabody Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology, the Harvard Museum of Natural History, and the Harvard Art Museums. The Everywhen exhibition includes many objects on loan from the Peabody Museum.

Tickets are $10 and registration is required. Register online, and indicate whether you would like a standard or vegetarian tasting.

The event will take place in the Science Center Lecture Hall C, 1 Oxford St., Cambridge, MA.
