Mission:
The Adult Science Fair is a dynamic thinking playground that fosters collaboration, creativity, and innovation among professionals, thought leaders, and enthusiasts. Our mission is to connect individuals through engaging activations that explore the intersections of food, culture, sustainability, and science. By creating immersive experiences and thought-provoking discussions, we aim to build a community dedicated to sustainable creation and the future of food.
Outcomes:
- Community Building: The Adult Science Fair successfully brought together a diverse group of thought leaders, innovators, and community members to collaborate on projects that address pressing issues related to food, sustainability, and culture.
- Innovative Activations: Through unique activations like "Science of the Peach" and "Science of the Grain," participants engaged in creative explorations of food science, brand sustainability, and cultural heritage, leading to new insights and ideas for future projects.
- Sustainable Impact: The fair sparked initiatives focused on sustainable practices in food production and brand development, with a particular emphasis on supporting local farms and resilient agricultural communities.
Featured Activation: Science of the Peach
Overview:
First unveiled as “The Peach State” in 1939, Georgia's moniker carries a complex history, rich with cultural significance yet tinged with challenges. Through the "Science of the Peach" activation, we gathered leaders from across the Southeast to explore this complexity through the lenses of culture, food, and sustainability.
Event Highlights:
Participants enjoyed an evening of plant-based and seafood-forward plates, all sourced from local farms, and paired with a selection of fresh spirits, wine, and mocktails. This event wasn't just a culinary experience; it was an opportunity to engage in meaningful discussions about the future of sustainable farming and the enduring legacy of the Georgia Peach.
Outcome:
The activation served as a catalyst for a larger project: crafting an immersive, communal art showcase that will bring to life the historical tapestry of the Georgia Peach. This living exhibit will narrate the past, present, and future of Georgia’s peach farmers, highlighting their resilience and commitment to sustainable agriculture.
