Formed for the Future 2: Taste the World 2026 (Leon Chan)

We are excited to host our annual Taste the World event on March 12th! Taste the World is a multicultural celebration and potluck! Instead of a normal Thursday night UCM, we will be in the UNC Ballroom and we will engage in presentations from various cultures while enjoying some delicious food from a variety of cultures and nations. Here’s some important information to note about the event:

  • We are looking for people to do a cultural presentation during the event! This is a chance to share something about your culture with the UCM community. This would be around 10 minutes long, and the possibilities are endless! Some examples of presentations that have been done in the past include teaching us some of your language, showing us traditional clothing, singing music or playing a musical instrument, or doing a slide show or kahoot on facts about your country, and more!

  • If you'd like to do a cultural presentation, please fill in the google form so that Adrian can plan how many people there will be.

  • UCM will be providing 2 main dishes for everyone to enjoy. As this is a potluck, we ask you to contribute by bringing a dish from your culture or background, or a favourite food even if it is not from your specific culture. You could do this individually, in pairs, or in a small group. We ask that dishes contain enough for around 4-6 small servings. 

    • According to SUO rules regarding potlucks, any food that you contribute must be compliant to the following rules:

      • Must be prepackaged/prepared [doesn't require refrigeration or be heated]

      • Anything straight off the grocery shelf or restaurant 

      • Grocery store ideas include pastries, snacks, drinks etc

  • Please fill in the google form to let us know what you will be bringing. This will help our team plan accordingly for the evening. Don't let the form be a barrier though, if you forget to fill it out, we would still love for you to bring something!

  • Lastly, invite your friends to come! It will be a lot of fun and a great time!
