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”
