The Strong Towns Local-Motive Tour leaves the station Feb. 4
Featuring eight live online events and two pre-recorded webcasts, the Strong Towns Local-Motive Tour will give people the essential tools for building resilience in their place.
Thanks to decades of fiscally risky, top-down growth, our neighborhoods, towns, and cities were fragile long before COVID-19 pandemic fallout sent them into chaos.
Now, it's clearer than ever that our communities need to invest in locally driven, bottom up action to restore their resilience. Strong Towns aims to identify people who are ready to take the next steps toward building fiscal stability in their places and equip them to do so with this carefully crafted series of workshops.
We can’t wait for others to take action on our behalf. If we want to build a Strong Town, we are going to have to do that with the people around us using the things we have at our disposal.
Chuck Marohn, Founder and President of Strong Towns
Each tour stop will spotlight speakers who have successfully applied Strong Towns strategies in their community. Participants will learn how to advocate for fiscally responsible growth and development. They will discover how to implement policies to encourage local enterprise. They'll brainstorm ways to invest in projects that will create safe, beautiful places. And they'll learn how to bring communities together to work toward resilience.
Tickets are available now. Individual tour stops are $25 each, and Round-Trip tickets—which include all eight live events as well as two exclusive pre-recorded stops, a $250 value—are $125.
These events will be useful for people of all backgrounds and experiences, from city planning professionals and elected officials to entrepreneurs and regular citizens who are ready to take action in their neighborhood, town, or city.
