A legacy exhibition dedicated to the community-focused event, Chippy Tea.

Chippy Tea is a recurring supper held at the Hub, bringing together people who identify as ‘outsiders’ to share personal stories around identity and belonging. Attendees are welcomed with a portion of chips (and a sauce of their choice) and invited into an informal, welcoming space for conversation, listening, and connection. Over time, Chippy Tea has become a moment of personal and cultural exchange, intergenerational conversation, and community care.

A Seat at the Table presents a community-influenced exhibition that reflects the atmosphere of these evenings. 

Chippy Tea is led by locally-based artist Richard Knight, who invites members of the community to speak and share their stories.
