It is customary during Sukkot to invite guests into one’s sukkah to eat and enjoy the space together. The Chicago Sukkah Design Festival is partnering with Stone Temple Baptist Church, Metro Chicago Hillel, and the Jewish Community Relations Council to host an Interfaith Community Dinner, inviting members of all faiths and cultural backgrounds to come together to break bread, share space, and create shared memories in the six sukkahs on the festival grounds.
During the meal, the Chicago History Museum will lead discussions around how place, space, migration, and belief relate to our ideas of shared heritage.
The meal will be lovingly prepared by Diaspora Dinners and Flava Food 4 the Soul. Dress comfortably for the outdoors!
Registration is FREE, but RSVP is required. The event will be capped at 45 people.
