سفره دايمه Sofra Daymeh, may your table always be plenty

Organized by Daleen Saah, سفره دايمه Sofra Daymeh is a reclamation and celebration of Palestinian culture & identity through food, conversation and a publication. During our kick-off dinner event on September 7 2019, NAVEL was transformed into a contemporary Palestinian garden while guests enjoyed dinner by chef Reem Assil; engaging in conversations about decolonization and the important role of cultural preservation for self-preservation.

Now, سفره دايمه Sofra Daymeh continues throughout November and December 2019 with meals hosted in Palestinian-American homes across the USA. These intimate experiences aim to open this important project to a broader audience, continuing the conversation about the decolonization of Palestinian food, culture, and identity.

Each guest will receive a copy of the سفره دايمه Sofra Daymeh zine.
