Women Over Dinner offers insightful, just-edgy-enough guide to topics ripe for exploration power, sexuality, and how both affect everything

We want to live in a world where the Inherent Power of Woman is remembered and expressed. The expressions will of course be as diverse as we are. Women Over Dinner is an invitation to gather and ask ourselves questions like: What does it mean, in present time, to be a woman? What if girls were taught from an early age, whether or not they ever choose to have a child, that they are born into nobility, a lineage that has the power to carry life and birth humans — the lineage of Woman? Then, might we ask, is equality even our goal, or is it something else? Something deeper, something more than a reaction to what has been, but a creation of what is true?

Women Over Dinner offers an insightful, just-edgy-enough guide to topics ripe for exploration: power, sexuality, and how both affect everything we see and experience in the world. The dinner table, in its sacred simplicity, holds us. We invite you to gather friends, family, community, around a meal and have a personal and intimate conversation. Not the kind of conversation that goes sideways when cookie cutter political opinions tempt us towards divisiveness. Instead, a place to just share what you think, have experienced, and maybe most importantly, what you feel, as you break bread and listen. We have no doubt that what ripples out of these conversations can change the world.

Doors open at 5:45p, we will mingle and show you to your table. Dinner starts at 6:00p.

Due to the intimate nature of the topics we explore, this event is for adults. You must be 18+. We check ID’s at the door and require each guest sign a waiver prior to entering the event. This is a substance-free and alcohol-free event.

Our ticket sales fund our non-profit, ensuring the movement's growth by enabling us to host more women in more cities across the globe. If you are unable to pay for your ticket and still desire to attend the dinner, please send an email to vanessa@womenoverdinner.org and I will put you on our list.

Your dinner will be co-created by our non profit sister organization: Free Food Harlem. Free Food restores dignity and serves the underserved.
