This is the third in a three part dialogue series held by the Voice Working Group of Edmonton's NextGen.
A panel composed of local creators, makers, and innovators will speak about their ideas, projects and insight around Connecting and Building Community in Edmonton. The panel will encourage attendees to get involved in and shape the evening's discussion, leading to a real dialogue allowing participants to hash out issues, opinions, and ideas surrounding Community Building in Edmonton.
This wonderful panel includes:
