community dinner
Shared local supper
A community dinner is a shared meal organized for a neighborhood, congregation, or other local group, typically held in a public space like a church hall or community center.
The emphasis is on bringing people together rather than fine dining: The fire department hosts a community dinner every spring.
Such events often serve as fundraisers or celebrations of local identity.
