Story Dinner: The Blak Party – Story Week 2024
Event description
STORY DINNER: THE BLAK PARTY
Story Week: Common-Unity
Blak people. Blak stories. Blak lives. Blak music. Join The Blak Party.
Join us for yarns around the dinner table. Experience how we as people of colour create memories of laughter and love while sharing soul food with yarns that make dinner time an exploration of the world. It’s where we encourage dreams to be fulfilled and learn cultural obligations within our space.
You are invited to bring a story. Word Travels provides the food and special Story Week guests. In this series of experiences, everybody shares an authentic part of themselves around a dinner table. Each night features a theme. Pick one, book yourself in, then eat, drink and open your memory box. A welcoming space for both the shy and gregarious.
Warning: may include face to face communication with other humans and eye contact.
HOSTED BY: Rob Waters
