Progressive Dinner 2023 Survey

Hello again, Neighbors.

For nine years, the South Downtown NRZ hosted an annual Progressive Dinner with guests from the SoDo, Downtown, and Charter Oak neighborhoods.

Modeled after the West End Dine Around, the event celebrates urban living, the walkability of our city, and neighborly camaraderie over good food and wine. The most recent event took place Saturday, February 29, 2020 (!), and was one of our most well-attended dinners, with nearly 80 neighbors participating as guests and hosts.

Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, we have not hosted a Progressive Dinner since then but hope to resurrect this wonderful event in 2023, if there is sufficient interest by the community. Please help us by taking this quick (5-minute) survey by 5 pm Friday, January 27.

All responses are welcome -- past Hosts, past Attendees, never attended, new to the neighborhood and never heard of it -- we'd love your feedback!
