Cenacle

/ˈsɛnəkəl/ noun

Definition

A small group of people sharing similar interests, especially writers or artists; also, the room where the Last Supper took place.

Etymology

From Latin 'cenaculum' (dining room/upper room), from 'cena' (dinner). The same word for the Last Supper room and for artistic circles — both are gatherings that change the world.

Kelly Says

The room where the Last Supper happened AND the word for small artist groups! Both are intimate gatherings that changed EVERYTHING! Your book club, your band, your study group — every cenacle has the potential to change the world! 🍷🎨
