About Us

At Her Table is a community initiative founded by Lauren Harkness, designed to create meaningful spaces where women can gather, connect, and engage in open conversations about life, faith, and values.

At Her Table fosters a sense of belonging and encourages authentic connections among women.

These events are often held at Sanctuary Canberra, a versatile community space also established by Lauren, reflecting her commitment to hospitality and community engagement.

A message from our Founder, Lauren

"When I first envisioned At Her Table, it was born from a desire to cultivate spaces where women could come together, share their stories, and find connection in a world that often feels disconnected.

Having spent over two decades in event management and community building through Rise Events and Sanctuary Canberra, I recognised the profound impact of gathering around a table.

At Her Table is more than just an event series; it's a movement towards authentic community, where every woman has a seat and every story is valued.

I invite you to join us, to share, to listen, and to be part of a community that celebrates the richness of our diverse journeys."

Our vision is to create a world where every woman feels deeply connected and supported, fostering authentic conversations and building true communities that reflect our core values - so that women across the world have the opportunity to taste and see the goodness of God.
