The Model

Each event has a different theme
Each event has a set number of available spots
Each guest is asked to bring a food (or just a story) that relates to the theme

Each gathering has a theme that relates to food, our lives and society and each person is encouraged to bring a dish that coincides with the theme or simply a story of a food that does.

We begin with listening to each person’s story about their food and through these begin to learn about each other. We then move on discussing how the theme applies to our individual lives and the ways it shows up in society.

Past themes include: Resilience, Hope, Creativity, Play, Identity, Transition and Strength

Each gathering allows participants to:

Connect with new people over common experiences and challenges
Listen too other’s stories and be listened too
Hear different perspectives about a common theme
Skip the small talk and engage in conversations about important issues that we face everyday
