Building vibrant cities is hard, but innovators don't have to do it alone. Welcome to the Vibrant Spaces podcast, a show about placemaking, activating and connecting city spaces for the communities you serve.
Cities are not just built by Mayors and municipalities, but also by YOU! It’s time to celebrate what we’re doing right.
Join hosts Emily Craven, CEO of Story City, and Tim Souza, Head of Community Activation, for this city conference in your pocket as they interview innovators across the country on initiatives in placemaking, urban planning, arts & culture, parks & recreation, sports, and beyond that will hopefully inspire you to become an agent of change in your own hometown.
