The German American Heritage Center will be hosting sessions for QC's Big Table events. The center will have 3 sessions on April 20th:
10:30 AM
12:30 PM
2:30 PM
We know there’s no single way to get there. It will take the involvement of individuals, families businesses, governments and nonprofits. We hope the Quad Cities Big Table generates open, thoughtful conversations that will spark new ways of working together by deepening our understanding of each other and what the community needs. Emphasis is not on finding immediate solutions, rather on creating authentic connection and civic engagement through conversation.
On April 20 and 21, more than 5,000 people representing different backgrounds, neighborhoods and interest groups will join more than 500 (one hour at any time of day) conversations to explore the ways in which we have the power to make our neighborhoods, communities and region stronger and more connected. It takes one hour and it’s free.
For the last year, the Q2030 Regional Vision movement has proven that many Quad Citizens share the desire to be a part of shaping our region’s future. Real progress for our community will result when residents and organizations collaborate to make contributions that add up to a greater solution. The Quad Cities Big Table aims to connect individuals and communities of diverse perspectives and backgrounds to do just that.
The entire community is welcomed to participate! We want the Quad Cities Big Table to be inclusive and diverse. Help us reach our goal of 5000 participants by inviting everyone to register for a Big Table. Talk about it at work, at your clubs and on social media. The hashtag is #QCBigTable2018.
