Over a meal with wine, FOOD WINE and DESIGN seeks to develop a platform showcasing design excellence, support for emerging designers and service to the community. Specifically, FOOD WINE and DESIGN intends to adopt an intimate and genuine approach to giving back. Seeking out unique and special projects, FOOD WINE and DESIGN focuses on ensuring that contributions are realised: it's not just about putting money into a faceless tin. Through this collaborative approach we intend to assist those less fortunate in the community (including the sick, disabled and struggling) who spend the majority of their time dealing with an illness, the maintenance of a disability or other special need. Assistance is gathered in the form of fundraising and donations of time, products and services.

Following a hugely satisfying first course, we are excited to announce that the second course will soon be served. And what better way to celebrate than with bubbles!

To coincide with the 150th-year-anniversary of the Melbourne Cup, FOOD WINE and DESIGN (in collaboration with FDC) will showcase our recently completed 'Shanti's Bathroom Project'. Proceeds raised at this event will go towards supporting the Wish List for The Children's Hospital at Westmead.
