The second annual downtown Olympia Open Table event is scheduled for September 11, 2010.  AADO is pleased to support this event which is taking place in the Downtown Olympia Theatre District.  The Open Table event is an initiative brought to life last year by Mathias Eichler,  who runs the shop  einmaleins in downtown Olympia.  The concept of Open Table is to bring people together for a festive picnic in downtown Olympia.   A side street is blocked off from traffic, table and chairs are brought in and people are invited to bring their picnic and join the camaraderie.  While not a pot luck per se, some participants may even make enough picnic fare to share if they desire.  Last year’s event saw several plates of snacks and cookies being passed around.   The first Olympia Open Table was a solid success under Eichler’s leadership.  Due to popular demand for a repeat, the second Olympia Open Table is now scheduled and will be coordinated through the Olympia Volunteer Services with support from Eichlar .

The Open Table is just another great event taking place in our Downtown Olympia Theatre District.  Additional information on Olympia Open Table can be obtained at everydayolympia.com.    Stay tuned for October’s Arts Crush information featuring Live Theatre Week and Free Night of Theatre.
