Dubai Culture and Talabat wrap up their collaboration that showcased unique rider helmet designs at Expo 2020

Dubai Culture and Arts Authority (Dubai Culture), the official culture supporter of Expo 2020 Dubai, and Talabat, the official food delivery partner for the global event, have officially wrapped up their collaboration, which saw six local young artists showcase their creativity with their unique helmet designs at Expo 2020 Dubai. Displayed at the ‘Talabat Kitchen’ in the Sustainability District, the artists, who are all UAE- based, explored their creativity as part of the #CreativeCravings initiative, which invited local artists to adorn Talabat riders’ helmets with artistic interpretations of culinary arts and innovation. The purpose was to promote the cultural scene and present young talents with a creative outlet at Expo 2020 Dubai. As part of this initiative, one artist was hosted every month at the ‘Talabat Kitchen.’ The helmets were chosen to symbolize appreciation for delivery riders in the UAE and across the world. While the initiative aimed to foster the local arts scene and empower young artists, it also presented an opportunity for them to creatively depict the UAE’s ambition towards innovation and technological advancements. The initiative between Dubai Culture and Talabat aimed to foster the culinary arts scene at Expo 2020 Dubai and provide an outlet to highlight the connection between art, food, and technology. The painted helmets collection will be displayed in the ‘Talabat Kitchen’ until Thursday, 31 March.
