Community Design Forums

The College of Charleston, Coastal Community Foundation, and Charleston Regional Alliance for the Arts are hosting a series of public creative conversation circles to discuss symphonic music in Charleston. By attending one of the sessions listed below, you will have the opportunity to engage in small discussion groups focused on different aspects of the future of symphonic music in Charleston. You will hear what makes symphony music in comparable cities work, and the ideas generated in the conversation circles will be collected and used to develop the path forward.

Each session is structured to foster collaboration, knowledge exchange and innovation through these highly interactive and participatory dialogues. Differences and diversity of thought are both necessary for innovation and vital for sustainability.

Our community deserves our best thinking. Come join in this important conversation, network with your fellow community leaders and help co-create our future.

Beverages and light snacks will be provided.
