Community Conversations
This workshop is the second in a series of three Community Conversations sponsored by Illinois Humanities, focusing on the theme of “A Place in the World,” which reminds us that the places where we live and work shape and are shaped by ideas, people, resources, histories, and events around the world—often in unexpected and curious ways.
The National Public Housing Museum acknowledges support from the Illinois Arts Council.
