Curious about On The Table?

On the Table is an opportunity to gather around a table with friends, neighbors, colleagues and maybe even a few people we are meeting for the first time to talk about the issues, big and small, that impact our quality of lifeand that of the city. When we talk about our experiences in Lexington and listen to others, we connect and learn about what matters to all of us.

On the Table invites Lexingtonians to come together to talk, collaborate, become more civically involved and be more committed to our community. The issues we face today don’t often offer quick fixes. On the contrary, progress will only result when residents, organizations, businesses and government work together to make contributions that add up to a greater solution than we can achieve on our own.
