On the Table - A Housing Conversation
Mayor Kirsten Keith invites you to an On the Table conversation about our region's housing challenges on Monday, November 13, 2017 at the Arrillaga Recreation Center, Oak Room at 6 pm .

On the Table aims to increase civic participation, foster new relationships and inspire action through small group conversations over a meal, coffee or tea, after work or at any other time during the day. Making time for conversation and connection is more important now than ever. Having conversations with our neighbors, coworkers and others who call Silicon Valley home, we can all be part of finding new solutions that make housing affordable for everyone. 
Each of us has a part to play. Each of us has a seat at the table.

Twenty-five years ago Stephen Miller opened the Stephen Miller Gallery after 40 years of experience in his hometown in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

The Stephen Miller Gallery has been dedicated to selling hand-woven oriental rugs that have ranged from antique to the, now more popular, contemporary rugs. Miller works with the carpet producers themselves varying from various cultures such as India, Turkey, and Pakistan, and strives to not only build great relationships with his clients and producers but also satisfy his art drive with the various designs that he sees.

Throughout the years, Miller has continued his business due to his interest in the East Asian Cultures as well as the artistic component of the business. Miller also appreciates the impact that a well-designed rug brings to one’s home. His admiration for selling rugs has failed to diminish due to the transformation that the rugs have gone through over the years.
