You are invited to the table!
We provide the dinner; you provide the conversation.

The first of its kind in the state, The Longest Table is an idea to build new relationships and talk about the future of our community. Share a meal and conversation with someone you don’t know*, exchange stories about life in Howard County, and discover both common ground and new ideas. The dialogue starts when you come to the table.

We are seeking people to be "table hosts" and facilitate conversations. If you are interested, please complete this form: https://goo.gl/forms/WgRAYxogObraRUAL2.

The Longest Table will be held outdoors on the campus of Howard Community College in the B/C Parking lot area, which is off the right spoke of the traffic circle at the main entrance on Little Patuxent Parkway. In the event of rain, the event will be moved into the Cafe on the Quad on the campus of Howard Community College.

*To enhance the experience of getting to know different people, guests will not be seated with their companions.
