This month we'll be the guest presenters at the monthly D Center Design Conversation! 

From the organizers:

Time to get our hands dirty! This D Convo is the first in a year long series on design prototyping. Let’s drive change in Baltimore by tackling community action opportunities and barriers.

Structure: We’ll meet once a month to cover a city challenge, introduce a partner working on that challenge, and workshop a big idea and a small intervention that could address that challenge with the partner. Interested parties will meet again to implement the small intervention and publicize the issue and intervention.

Who we need: Designers of all ilk! Marketing experts! videographers and photographers! Artists and craftspeople! Events planners! Community members wanting to get something done!
