Announcements 1.16.18

In light of our country’s divided history and the momentous events of the past year, it’s more important than ever to build with, not for. Inspired by these events we have created an event series titled “Part of the Conversation.”

Our mission is to change the dynamics of the conversations regarding people of color and marginalized populations. We strive to cultivate an environment where these members of society are invited to actively participate in the conversation, rather than simply being the topic of discussion.

Please stay tuned to our website, social media and newsletters for updates on POTC’s inaugural Black History Month programming!

CIVIC HALL ORGANIZERS-IN-RESIDENCE SPRING CYCLE APPLICATIONS OPEN
All the time in American public life, millions of people are in motion, seeking to engage elected officials and shift public opinion, forming and joining thousands of national and local groups. At the center of all of this activity are organizers, often working in isolation from home or in challenging settings like crowded coffee shops or impersonal co-working spaces, where they miss out on many forms of mutual support, including skill-sharing, connections and problem-solving.

Civic Hall, through the support of the Craig Newmark Foundation, wants to change that dynamic by offering individuals and small teams involved in organizing to defend democracy and civil rights free memberships in our collaborative community center, along with mentoring and support amplifying their messages across our platform. 

The application deadline is January 24th  –  APPLY HERE
