Join the Community Design Collaborative, Center for Architecture + Design (Philadelphia), and the Center for Architecture (NYC) in a cross-festival event featuring some of the leading voices in community- led design. Bridging Design Philadelphia and Archtober, this panel discussion will highlight prominent design nonprofits in each city to reflect on the 50+ year legacy of the neighborhood design center and how they are now more needed and relevant than ever. Panel will examine how design can be used as a tool for systems change, forwarding principles of design justice, and cultivating community empowerment and agency. Discussion with audience will consider community engagement as the standard in all design and planning processes.

There are two ticketing options: 1) online for the Zoom livestream 10:30am -12:30pm, and 2) in-person at the Center for Architecture and Design in Philadelphia with a post-event box lunch and mingling period. 10:00am - 1:00pm Masks will be required for everyone attending in-person.
