the Crowded table

a communal meal on the threshold of significant change

An invitation to ecological relation

join us in a collective gesture of imagination.

It’s a gathering.
It may or may not have to do with food though it certainly will nourish you.

Bring your body. Bring your heart. Let’s navigate together.


“moving, tender, whimsical, delicious, hopeful…invites & embodies ecological + intra-human interdependence”
