Fairfield by Marriott Kolkata is set to bring together art, culture, mythology, and gastronomy with Art & Appetite, a week-long immersive Paint and Dine experience at KAVA. Designed for art enthusiasts, families, Marriott Bonvoy members, and the city's cultural community, the event promises a unique blend of visual storytelling and curated culinary experiences.

Inspired by the theme "Where Art Meets Gastronomy," the event will showcase a specially curated exhibition of mythological artworks from renowned artist Prithviraj Choudhury's acclaimed Mythoscape collection. Guests will also have the opportunity to interact with the artist and gain insights into the traditional styles and techniques of Kalighat and Patachitra painting.

Complementing the exhibition is a specially curated dining experience featuring regional Indian and international cuisines inspired by mythological stories and cultural traditions. Interactive live food stations, signature delicacies, and storytelling through food presentation will add to the immersive experience.

A major highlight of the event is the Paint and Dine activity, where guests of all ages can create their own artwork under the guidance and inspiration of Prithviraj Choudhury's creations. Selected artworks and limited-edition prints will also be available for purchase, allowing visitors to take home a memorable piece of the experience.

Speaking about the initiative, Somrup Chanda, General Manager, Fairfield by Marriott Kolkata, said, "At Fairfield by Marriott Kolkata, we are constantly exploring experiences that go beyond hospitality and create meaningful connections with our guests. Art & Appetite is a celebration of two universal languages, art and food, that bring people together through stories, emotions, and shared experiences. By presenting the evocative mythological works of renowned artist Prithviraj Choudhury alongside an immersive culinary journey, we hope to offer our guests an enriching afternoon where culture, creativity, and gastronomy come together under one roof. We envision this as the beginning of a distinctive experiential platform that celebrates the vibrant artistic and cultural spirit of Kolkata."

Art & Appetite aims to create a unique platform that blends lifestyle, creativity, and hospitality while encouraging meaningful community engagement through interactive and educational experiences. The event also seeks to attract art collectors, corporate leaders, cultural enthusiasts, influencers, media professionals, and young creative communities.

The event will begin with an exclusive preview dinner for invited guests, followed by brunches and dinners featuring the Paint Your Canvas activity over the weekend. The celebration will continue through the week with dinner service alongside the ongoing art exhibition, offering guests multiple opportunities to experience this unique fusion of art and cuisine.
