Gathering Places: Creative Conversations (Summer 2024) is a three-part virtual series that explores the intersections of urban life, placemaking, and artistic expression. Hosted by placemaking leader Madeleine Spencer, you’ll hear from nationally-acclaimed creative placemakers and Portland area placemaking grantees who will share their inspirations, artistic journeys, and the unique challenges of working within community spaces. In collaboration with Placemaking US, Gathering Places is co-presented and sponsored by the Community Placemaking program of Metro – the greater Portland, area’s regional government that serves 24 cities and three counties in Oregon.
