EDE Donates Exhibitry to Purdue University

How-To Tips

EDE, a leader in exhibit design and fabrication, has partnered with Purdue University to enhance its Demonstration Kitchen, a hands-on learning space that promotes nutrition education and culinary skills. Through a charitable donation, EDE provided several exhibit components from its rental inventory, allowing Purdue to reoutfit the kitchen with state-of-the-art cooking stations.

Located within Purdue’s France A. Córdova Recreational Sports Center, the Demonstration Kitchen is a hub for interactive learning, offering cooking classes, workshops, and wellness programs designed to teach students, faculty, and the community the fundamentals of healthy eating and food preparation. With the addition of EDE’s high-quality exhibit components, the space has been transformed into a modern, functional environment that better serves its educational mission.

“At EDE, we believe in the power of education to shape the future, and we’re thrilled to contribute to Purdue University’s Demonstration Kitchen,” said Greg Tivadar, President and Creative Director of EDE. “By repurposing elements from our exhibit inventory, we’re not only supporting sustainability but also creating an engaging space where students can develop essential life skills. We couldn’t be happier to see these components given new life in a setting that fosters learning and well-being.”

EDE has long been committed to innovation, sustainability, and community engagement, values that align closely with Purdue’s mission to provide cutting-edge educational resources. This donation underscores EDE’s dedication to giving back and making a meaningful impact beyond the world of trade shows and exhibits.
