Cheese Society- Eat and Greet

The Eat and Greet is the first event of the final event of myself and Hollie running the Cheese Society. The first event of the year is aimed at first years joining the uni and cheese fans from previous years. 

The first event people bring there own cheese as conversation starters as the event is titled 'eat and greet'. To promote the event I created a poster to put up around uni, advertised it at the freshers fair and promoted it as an event on Facebook inviting people. 

Here is the poster, I made it using a collage technique, keeping it fun with cheese clouds and the cow shouting about the event. 

We managed to book Friends of Ham a cheese, meat and wine specialist in Leeds for the event, booking and contacting Friends of Ham went smoothly and they were excited to have the cheese society in. 

The event was a success, people came through the advertising as we didn't know many people there (which is what we wanted). We sold 7 tote bags with memberships at £5 which makes up for the cheese brought. I am really happy with the way the event went, people enjoyed the night we gained good feedback.
