A Show / A Public Conversation / A Participatory Civic Planning Adventure

Friday, May 23, 2008

first night

last night, we had our first public event

it was nervewracking, and tremedously exciting
around 40 people came, age and geographic area diverse, from the community on and off campus (which made for rich conversation)

our community experts/coaches, who are different each 'show', last night were an engineer, an urban transportation specialist, and a journalist who has covered public housing for 15 years

the event ran 72 minutes
people stayed and talk
the performer/facilitators did a great job

and tonight, we will be full at 60, with new coaches and i'm sure a different event

more details on the conversations here soon
