CNU Utah Annual Meeting and Awards Breakfast
Join us for the annual CNU Utah Annual Meeting and Awards Breakfast
The event will feature keynote speaker, Dr. Jamin Rowan, author of "The Sociable City" (2017, University of Pennsylvania Press). In his research about the past, present and future of cities, Dr. Rowan explores rich source materials often overlooked in studies of urban life—arts, literature, museum exhibitions—and presents a body of work that explores and advocates for the vibrant social structures made possible by the modern city. His aims are to bring better understanding to why we build and govern cities in the ways we do, and to imagine an urban future that will effectively preserve and facilitate the interpersonal associations and social networks that city dwellers need to live manageable, equitable, and fulfilling lives.
A short walking tour of the neighborhood with Dr Rowan will take place after the event.
