WHAT?
Launched in 2016, The Big Table® is a day dedicated to community-wide conversations. Through intentional dialogue and connection, participants are encouraged to imagine the next steps toward a kind and just future for all.
WHY?
As neighbors with interconnected lives in an ever-changing, and fast-paced world, we can choose to slow down and listen to one another to prepare for whatever tomorrow may bring. Socially connected communities are more trusting, resilient, prosperous, safe, and healthy. Being ready for the opportunities and challenges ahead starts with widening our circles and listening to understand.

WHO?
Anyone can host or participate in a Big Table conversation. Everyone has a seat at the table! The more voices, the better. Big Table discussions are facilitated by volunteer hosts equipped with a guidebook and materials. Most discussions will include 6-10 people; ideally, some or all participants will be meeting each other for the first time.
