SIX x ATE ("six by ate") was a roving dinner and arts lecture series operating from 2012-2021. Each event invited the audience to enjoy five-minute presentations from six artists and a meal from one cuisinier. There were no formal Q & A’s or long-winded introductions, so guests spent most of the evening talking informally while eating and drinking. This relaxed environment encouraged real connections, future collaborations and new friendships.
