Around the Thanksgiving Table: Real Talk, Tablescapes & Togetherness

Thanksgiving is about more than what’s on the menu. It’s a holiday shaped by history, traditions, family, food, community, and the stories we tell about what it means to gather together.

Join us for Around the Thanksgiving Table, an afternoon of Thanksgiving history, creativity, and real talk.

We’ll take a look at the history behind Thanksgiving, including how the holiday developed, the familiar story many of us learned growing up, and the more complicated history and perspectives that are often left out of that story.

Then we’ll bring the conversation to the table. We’ll explore Thanksgiving traditions, tablescapes and decor, hosting ideas, and creative ways to make a gathering feel welcoming and memorable.

We’ll also talk about the very real human side of the holiday: family dynamics, changing traditions, setting boundaries, navigating difficult conversations, chosen family, creating new traditions, and making celebrations more inclusive and meaningful.

Whether you’re hosting a full house, bringing a dish somewhere else, celebrating with chosen family, rethinking what Thanksgiving means to you, or just looking for some holiday inspiration, you’re welcome at the table.

Come for the history and decor. Stay for the conversation. Leave with new ideas for what it can mean to gather around the Thanksgiving table.

18 and Older please.
