Open Satellite dinner: If My Table Was More Like a Boat
Michael Hebb and One Pot are instigating a series of five dinners asking "What is Bellevue?" The first, on Thursday, February 18, will also launch Open Satellite's first Publication Studio book, Meiro Koizumi.
About the dinner, Hebb writes: "During a period of rapid urbanization and fluid movement, it is our intention to channel some of this energy into a smartly designed series of generative conversations around the dinner table with an intimate group of individuals we’ve identified as key figures who have a connection to the Eastside. It is our hope that this inaugural group will kick start a conversation examining the historical, current, and yet-to-be-defined narratives about Bellevue, and consider the role arts and culture can successfully play within the emerging urban life of this young city. Special guests include Matthew Stadler, of Publication Studio, Seattle artist and Bellevue native, Greg Lundgren, Bellevue artist, Genevieve Tremblay, and the architects of Lead Pencil Studio, Daniel Mihalyo and Annie Han.
This is the first of a series of dinners held in various unlikely locations throughout Bellevue. We ask that you bring something to dinner, a specific location – within Bellevue – that would make a compelling site for a future dinner. A field, a lobby, a convenience store. We need the address and the reasons why we should gather people at that location. If you want to get specific: think about what you might serve, or drink, or talk about at this hypothetical dinner. We will add these locations to a large map – both physically and digitally. These ideas will help us choose our locations for actual dinners and in some way alter the way we look at Bellevue.
