Join us on Earth Day: Tuesday, April 22nd, for a nourishing and intimate evening of connection at a private home in Chelsea, with the cofounders of Break-Bread World™, a powerful gathering ritual that fosters meaningful conversation.

We are coming together to ignite a deeper conversation over dinner with fellow artfully-inspired friends at a spectacular town home in Chelsea.

We’ll begin with a brief tour of host Elena Sapir’s nature-inspired art collection, featuring the Tree Of Life by Nikolina Kovalenko.

Then, we’ll move into a soulful, guided food and gathering process called Break-Bread, that helps guests slow down, foster meaningful insight and expand through the sharing of collective wisdom – all over a delicious plant-based meal.

Utilizing the Break-Bread process, we will align and connect, then split off into two tables for an extended conversation around the following Earth-Day-inspired prompt:

• In the book The Hidden Life of Trees, they talk about how through complicated underground fungal networks, trees send nutrients or in some cases, sugar, to trees who need it.

• For you, bring a story or a scenario where underground sugar networks are running in the background of your life or community. And imagine what it would look like to radically share more sugar?

The evening will be led by Cofounders, Martha Williams and John Scilpote and supported by their new Break-Bread World Conversation Journey Deck, which allows people to begin hosting their own deep, meaningful dinner gatherings easily and effortlessly.

Guests are also invited to purchase their own deck at deeply discounted price when signing up.

This unique experience is limited to 14 attendees and includes:

• 3-course organic, vegan meal catered by le Botaniste with wine

• Appetizer: Superseed avocado bites

• Entree: Vegetable tajine with side salad

• Dessert: assorted vegan baked goods

• Walk-through of the private art collection and chance to meet one of the artists

• The opportunity to explore & deepen your connection to both nature and community

You will take away:

• A new awareness of how you show up to conversation

• Meaningful connections with like-minded women

• An appreciation for slowing down and mindfully connecting

• An introduction to how to host a Break-Bread dinner party and cultivate community

• Insight into your relationship to community, nature (or sugar)

Whether you are a NYC local or visiting from out-of-town, this will be a great opportunity to experience the art of intentional conversation – while also celebrating the bounty of our planet – on Earth Day.
