Free, with RSVP
How can architecture create positive change and foster community?
Join award-winning design writer and educator Frances Anderton and Grace Farms Architecture Advisor Toshihiro Oki as they explore the design of JACCC and Grace Farms through the lens of Ma, the concept referring to the spaces between boundaries intentionally left empty to allow different people, things, places, and experiences to co-exist with less friction between them. Before the interview, we invite you to join us for a cocktail reception.
This program is co-presented by JACCC and Grace Farms.
