Cincinnati’s Table is shaping communities one dinner party at a time. The traveling monthly series is hosting free dinners across the city with the goal of connecting immigrants and refugees to each other and their U.S.-born neighbors.
Monday, all are invited to a special farm-to-table dinner at Cincinnati State that will feature the cooking of four to five immigrant chefs, and includes interactive activities to bring together groups of strangers. The dinner coincides with Welcoming Week, which includes thousands of events held across the country to unite immigrants and non-immigrants in the same communities.
Cincinnati’s Table is an effort of The Welcome Project, a social enterprise started in 2017 by Camp Washington’s Wave Pool gallery and the immigrant and refugee resource group Heartfelt Tidbits.
5-8 p.m. Monday. Free. Cincinnati State, 3520 Central Parkway, Clifton, facebook.com/wavepoolgallery.
