The Black Table: Opening Gathering

### The Black Table: Opening Gathering

This is not a networking event.
This is not a panel.
This is a table.

Location will be in Nottingham, MD.

The Black Table Experience was created as a space for intentional conversation, reflection, and connection among Black adults navigating work, life, identity, and growth. This opening gathering marks the founding table of the community.
We are slowing things down on purpose.

### What to Expect

This is a small, curated conversation held in an intimate setting. The experience is structured, but not rigid. You can expect:
• A grounded opening to set expectations and tone
• Guided conversation prompts that invite honesty and depth
• Space to listen, speak, and be present without performance
• A respectful, confidential environment
Everyone at the table will have a voice.

### What This Is Not

This is not a mixer.
This is not speed networking.
This is not a loud or crowded event.
If you are looking to hand out business cards, this may not be the space for you.
