The Last Calligraphy Supper
With five courses representing Japanese, Tibetan, Korean, Moroccan, and Italian cuisines, the Last Calligraphy Supper favors "fun dining" over "fine dining" and brings together a group of like-minded people to appreciate different cultures by transforming foods into calligraphic artworks in varied languages. In such an event, we value like-mindedness, inclusiveness, and generosity by making a card exchange, gifting each other artwork, and sharing our cultures. In a sense, "Last Calligraphy Supper" not only means the last dinner in an academic quarter but also means a lasting one in people’s memories.
