Before the doors officially open, we're bringing together some of the people whose encouragement, work, friendship, ideas and support helped us get here. Some of what you'll see is built. Some of it is still becoming. That's rather the point.
RSVP →Come see the space. Hear the journey from Social Sushi to SushiRitas. Meet some good people. Eat. Talk. Explore what might become possible from here.
No pitch. No presentation marathon. Just gratitude, hospitality and a room full of possibility.
A loose three hours. The structured part ends early enough for the room to breathe.
Music, food, drink and unhurried conversation.
From Social Sushi in 2012 to 5700 Woodward — what was learned on the way.
A guided look at SushiRitas and Rita's Sanctuary.
Small mixed tables over food, and three light prompts.
A handful of reflections, shared back to the room.
The part most likely to matter. No second programme.
Engage with one, two or all three. Or none — that is a perfectly good evening too.
What are you navigating, exploring or hoping to move forward?
What might become easier with the right person, resource, space or opportunity around it?
What do you know, have, create or care about that might be useful to someone else?
You will not be asked to introduce yourself to the whole room, to join anything, or to scan anything. A seat was always yours.
