Through art, Atlantans can examine our complex history and raise awareness of social determinants affecting health such as food insecurity, racial discrimination, environmental factors, and income disparity. We hope to inspire action and build partnerships to create positive change for all of us.
Equitable Dinners brings together strangers and friends from diverse backgrounds to talk about complex issues like race over a meal, fueled by theater. Connect and be inspired to build a more equitable Atlanta in this transformational experience.
