on July 22 from 6-9PM, as part of PNCA's ongoing Idea Studios, there will be another talk (both events are at PNCA, 1241 NW Johnson) called "In The Round: Collective Leadership" featuring mayor-elect Sam Adams, Metro president David Bragdon, Hillsboro mayor Tom Hughes, Portland planning director Gil Kelley, and City of Gresham executive manager Alice Rouyere.
With an ambitious new mayor on board who favors the arts, as well as a revision of the Portland Plan coming from city planners, there is no better time to get involved in shaping the city's future. This exhibit will make an excellent first start. But the quintet offering ideas can't do it alone. We need participation and advocacy from the architecture and design community to hold the city to its potential.
