Hunter Ryan Photography for A Loving Table
The table is where life unfolds, friendships flourish, ideas and conversations take flight, and families are forged. It’s where we are seen, known, and loved. Come to the Table will inspire us through design and education to create gatherings around our own tables which encourage conversation, invite lingering, and evoke a sense of God’s grace and belonging.
“Come to the Table” will present a masterpiece of table settings curated by some of Charlotte’s premier designers, all with an eye toward creating a sense of togetherness, beauty, and belonging.
This event is more than just a visual feast.
Join us on February 4 & 5, 2026. We’re saving a place at the table for you!
