Georgetown U Fall 2015 Speaker Series: Creating Creative Cities

This is sponsored by the Georgetown University master degree program in Urban and Regional Planning, which is offered by the School of Continuing Studies.

(The first two programs already have occurred.  I am not sure if they have been videotaped.  The first program, on "It’s There, But Can We See It? Exploring the Contours of Creative Communities," looked particularly interesting.  But I didn't find out about this series til after the first session.)
