“Common table: divisiveness and conflict are fueled by the inability to see each other as people, with much more in common than we are often led to believe. Walter capps stated that "we are strongest as people when we are directed by that which unites us, rather than giving into the fears, suspicions, innuendos and paranoias that divide." sitting down for a meal together is one of the most fundamental ways to bridge divisions and build community. It is a basic starting point toward deeper understanding and relationship-building. Common table represents a growing number of rather uncommon events around the community for doing just that. No speeches, no politics, no awards just food and conversation.”

“Coffee conversations: a series of inclusive community conversations inspired by "voices of the stranger," a course taught by walter capps at u.c. Santa barbara. This program launched in february, 2019, with an event entitled "coffee with a black guy," (photos and video below) hosted by james joyce iii, featuring, coffee, connection, and conversation about the often tough and uncomfortable realities that impact some of us, therefore all of us as a whole.”

“United by art united by art (formerly creative democracy) brings artists and their fans from all corners of our community together around the commonality of art and creativity. Each unique event features an unexpected diversity of visual artists, musicians, poets, dancers, storytellers, who are otherwise unlikely to share a stage together.”
