Equitable Dinners brings together strangers and friends from diverse backgrounds to talk about complex issues like race over a meal, fueled by theater. Connect and be inspired to build a more equitable world in this transformational experience.

We're teaming up with Out of Hand Theater to host an Equitable Dinner @UMICH for up to 300 participants on March 20, 2024, from 7:00-9:00 PM. Featuring the original short play Jamesha's Story, written by Morgan Breon, starring Aj Ziona Campbell-Kelley with Anna Webber and Joseph Michael Kenneth.

This event coincides with the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, harnessing the transformative power of theater to inspire action.

Event Highlights:
- A Meal: Share a meal with approximately 10 friends and strangers
- A Play: Experience a thought-provoking short play
