Connect to Chicagoans from all walks of life while enjoying delicious meals and dynamic conversations!

Across the Table is a non-profit which breaks down race and socio-economic barriers by uniting Chicagoans over meals and dynamic conversation in order to lead to an understanding and appreciation of participants’ differences and common experiences.

You will be a part of a group of eight and one of those people is a volunteer facilitator. The dinners are family-style and vegetarian. You will connect with people whose experiences and perspectives are different from your own yet you'll discover how much we all have in common at the same time.

To be registered for an Across the Table dinner, you must sign up at: www.acrossthetable.org. If you have any questions contact Lauren Grossman at 773-895-5076 or at acrossthetable@gmail.comn.

Thank you for your interest!

What members are saying

 It's a wonderful way to meet new people, be inspired by interesting and stimulating conversation and a great way to try new restaurants and foods. 

 The group seeks diverse individuals and thrives on discovering the commonalities, rather than differences in relationships.
