Supper Social is a casual soirée series for art professionals, by an art professional.
Each edition is anchored by seasonal light bites, themed conversation cards, and mixer sessions to bring the emerging art industry closer with both class & sass.
SS04: Nov. 25th
☺︎ Theme =We Are Family!
Think: disco record sets, feeding the dog under the table, someone gets a new piercing, tryptophan naps, twirling till the afters.
Dressing on theme is welcome!
☺︎ Bites = quiche, more quiche, and maybe some pie?!
Join the social and let's have a bite, sip, and brain-tickling conversation together ☻

The pitch for a new type of arts gathering
Supper Social started in summer 2025 as an antidote to the cycle of too crowded, too loud, and too late art world happenings. This one's for all the advocates and facilitators who make the ecosystem go 'round - curators, gallerists, advisors, writers, producers, art handlers, fabricators, etc. (Artists & patrons are welcome too!)
It's where you can be yourself and still network.
Where just the right amount of people means you can have actually meaningful conversations.
Where food & drinks is an energizer, not the main character.
You are the centerpiece. What do you want to bring to the table?
Dreamed up and organized by independent curator Lauren Hirshfield, Supper Social is inspired by salons and series like A'Lelia Walker’s “The Dark Tower” and Dali’s “Les Dîners”. Lauren hopes this event brings the emerging art world together in a more intimate, intentional, and inspiring way.
