In order to keep this virtual table alive and well in the real world, we host dinner parties inspired by each issue. Nothing fancy, per se. Just a place to come together, enjoy a hearty meal, and share in lively conversation. And because we believe it’s important that writers and artists be paid for their work, each intimate meal raises funds to pay these talented folks to continue the conversation online. What we offer is an overstuffed bite and the stained napkin you throw aside to jump into the mix of people and ideas at the table. There is no dabbing at the mouth or precious placement of genteel forks. We’d rather you be present than polite. After all, this business of dining together. 45 CINCO DE MAYO PARTY MARGARITA SIPPING May 2, 2015 7:00-10:30pm Justan & Becca Koch’s House The fantastic Cinco de Mayo party is back by demanda populara!
