The Future of New York: Hopes for Our City

The Future of New York: Hopes for Our City

Building a more just, positive future for ourselves, our communities, and our city begins with imagining it. Come spend a morning charting a course forward: a timely conversation where typically unheard voices take center stage to share hopes and visions for New York City. Policymakers, city agencies, organizations, students, and New Yorkers of all backgrounds are invited to listen and learn, and to give voice to ways the city and impacted communities can partner in building the futures we want.

Breakfast will be served; all are welcome.

Pace University is hosting this event at the Bianco Room - 3rd floor, 15 Beekman St in downtown Manhattan. Please bring IDs for admission.
