Announcement:

The Union Gospel Mission and the BAM Institute of Civic Biodesign present the Future of East 8th Street. Engage with neighborhood residents, business owners, social services, first responders, faith-based communities, and others who are affected by or interested in the East 8th Street corridor. All stakeholders are invited to share their ideas or simply listen to others. The Open Space Technology format provides for a dynamic and collaborative conversation forum where all voices can be heard and recorded. The issues that matter most to the neighborhood are the issues that are discussed. Through this process, community members can collectively inspire and collaborate with one another to develop the most effective strategies for present and future challenges.

And it all takes place in the heart of East 8th Street, at the Union Gospel Mission Thrift Store. The future begins now.

Lunch graciously prepared by En Place Catering. Snacks will be provided. Families are welcome and are encouraged to attend.
