Together We Dine!

February 23, 2026. 6:00 pm- 7:30 pm

Southwestern University and Grace Episcopal Church are proud to partner with Common Ground USA and Project Unity to host a special dinner event in Georgetown, TX. Together We Dine™ provides an opportunity for individuals of diverse backgrounds to gather over a meal in a safe and respectful space to have meaningful conversations on our varied perspectives and differences regarding topics we don’t often openly discuss. This experience will provide an invaluable opportunity for participants to connect and share with one another as we discover that we have more in common than not. Plan to attend, and you will realize that what unites us is greater than what divides us.
