The Listening-Table Serves Dinner and Conversation in Bentonville
Most dinner invitations ask you to bring a bottle. This one asks you to bring a story, and then mostly to listen.
The Listening-Table lands in Bentonville on Thursday, November 5, and it’s setting up in a hangar. Yes, a hangar! The seat next to you belongs to someone you haven’t met yet, and turning that stranger into a friend by dessert is pretty much the whole plan.

The Longest Ride, Told Around One Table
The night’s theme is The Longest Ride: a conversation about resilience, the unexpected turns life takes, and the people who make the trip worth it. Guided conversation keeps things rolling, so nobody gets stuck making small talk about the weather. (It’s November in Arkansas. It’ll change by morning anyway.)
Who’s pulling up a chair? Entrepreneurs, creatives, community builders, business owners, professionals and music lovers. They all believe some of life’s best opportunities start with a simple conversation.

Cleared for Dinner
The table comes with plenty more than good company:
- Welcome cocktail: handcrafted, with mocktails on the menu too
- Multi-course dinner: prepared by a private chef
- Wine pairings: a pour matched to every course
- A parting gift: a handcrafted Listening-Table keepsake made exclusively for this evening
Chancey Williams, Unplugged and Up Close
Chancey Williams plays a private acoustic set just for the table, and he’s bringing the stories behind the songs along with the songs themselves. It’s a fitting soundtrack for a night built around listening.
