Story Sharing Potluck Supper - "Don't Judge a Dish By Its Cover"
Community Plate, together with the Falmouth Memorial Library and Episcopal Church of Saint Mary's, invites you to join us at the library in Falmouth for a special evening of connecting through the sharing of food, stories, and recipes. A Story Sharing Potluck Supper is an opportunity to engage with new and old friends and to make connections around something we all have in common: the food we eat and our family food stories. Bring a dish (with a story!) to share, an open mind and an open heart. During the dinner we’ll be sharing stories around the table, and after dessert, you’ll be treated to a collection of live storytelling performances from practiced storytellers — some may even be your neighbors! Bring your recipe to the event, and afterwards we’ll be compiling the evening's recipes and stories into a mini community cookbook that all attendees will receive to commemorate our evening together and the community we created.

Our theme for the evening is “Don’t Judge a Dish By Its Cover.” Sometimes our whole perception changes when we lift the lid and take a peek beneath the cover. Whether we’re tasting a food for the first time, making a friend in unusual circumstances, or finding a point of connection in a place we never could have predicted, we’ll celebrate the unexpected, and the many ways that we can be surprised and delighted when we look beneath the surface. Prior to the supper, you will receive a series of story prompts that we will use to share stories during the supper. Don't miss out on this chance to create lasting memories and forge new friendships. We look forward to sharing food and stories with you!
This free community event is hosted by Community Plate together with Falmouth Memorial Library and Episcopal Church of Saint Mary's. While your "ticket in" is the dish or story that you bring (and you don't HAVE to bring a dish -- see our FAQ), those wishing to contribute something can make a donation to Community Plate, either online or at the door. Community Plate is a nonprofit organization, currently applying for 501(c)3 status. We greatly appreciate your support!
