A Listening Experience

Two people. One table. No debate. No discord. Just story.

In a world that often feels divided, Across the Table invites us to slow down, share a meal or a drink, and rediscover what connects us. The idea is simple: two people who see the world differently sit together, tell their stories, and listen — really listen — without trying to convince or correct.

When we set politics aside and speak from the heart, we often find that we have far more in common than we think.

How It Works

1. Sign Up:
   Fill out a short questionnaire so we can pair you with someone whose life experience may differ from yours.

2. Show Up:
   Join us at Magpie for an evening of shared stories and quiet connection.

3. Listen & Reflect:
   Guided prompts will help you tell your story, listen deeply, and notice what you share in common.

Why It Matters

Across the Table isn’t about debate — it’s about humanity.
It’s a reminder that beneath our differences are the same threads of love, loss, hope,
and belonging that tie us all together.
