City Lobby is the Urban Consulate's pop-up parlor for urban exchange for people who love cities. Monthly on First Thursdays we feature a few guests -- some local, some from out of town, some with outside perspective due to work or recent travel/experience -- who will share their work, recent projects, or top-of-mind issues related to cities. Come for a cocktail, stay for conversation. Locals and travelers welcome!
Philly delegates will share what they're learning about Ethical Redevelopment from Theaster Gates at PlaceLab in Chicago, and how it applies to their local work.
Special guests:
+ Akeem Dixon, New Kensington Community Development Corporation (NKCDC)
+ Keir Johnston, AMBER Art & Design
+ Lindsey Scannapieco, Scout Ltd
+ Ernel Martinez, AMBER Art & Design
+ Tayibb Smith, Little Giant, Institute of Hip-Hop Entreprenuership
Free to attend. Drink specials offered. Hosted by Jermaine Jenkins and Michelle Freeman of Witty Gritty.
Thanks to Knight Foundation and Le Meridian - Philadelphia.
