Seasoned has been awarded approved supplier status at the British Museum and Whitechapel Gallery following formal tender processes.
Seasoned has worked with the British Museum since 2015 and has delivered daytime and evening events for both commercial clients and corporate sponsors across the Museum’s uniquely versatile spaces. The spaces include the famous two-acre square Great Court, the Egyptian Sculpture Gallery, the Enlightenment Gallery, the Nereid Gallery, the Wellcome Trust Gallery as well as a suite of contemporary conference facilities that includes the sleek BP Lecture Theatre.
Sales and Marketing Director, Nicky Pratt said of the British Museum contract awards: “We are so thrilled to extend our partnership with the Museum teams at such an iconic Grade I listed venue. Once again it demonstrates that we are trusted by prestigious cultural venues to deliver amazing, personalised events. Exceptional event catering with impact is what we are renowned for, and we will continue to ensure our events are delivered, planned and managed as sustainably as possible through our local supply chain of London suppliers and social enterprises.”
Lisa Guastella, Head of Venue Sales and Marketing at the British Museum added: “We are so excited to be continuing our successful relationship with Seasoned and the team! Our clients always give us such incredible feedback on their food and service, especially their creative and bespoke menus, and they are a joy to work with every time. I look forward to delivering more amazing events with them.”
For the first time in Seasoned’s forty-year history they will also be joining the brand-new accredited caterer list for Whitechapel Gallery. Founded in 1901 “to present the finest art of the world for the people of the East End, London”, the Gallery boasts an impressive history of firsts and identifies and supports local and emerging artists. The Gallery houses 3,600 square metres of beautiful events spaces that include two galleries, an auditorium, and two studio spaces that are available to hire for daytime and evening events.
Nicky added: “We are so excited to be joining Whitechapel Gallery’s list of approved caterers. We share fundamental cultural alignments with the Gallery, so we are looking forward to making an impact, not only with our food but also with our support to charity and community. Our team cannot wait to start imagining and designing new possibilities to transform the stylish airy studios and contemporary brick-exposed Galleries for events.”
