Shaping the Future of Local Programs: Spring Event

JOIN US!

Hosted at the Brew Lab, American Public Square once again invites the community to a happy hour event to discuss community programming.

At this event, you’ll have the chance to actively participate in the conversation, sharing your thoughts, ideas, and suggestions for what topics and types of programs and events you would like to see in our community moving forward.

KCUR’s community engagement producer, Zach Perez, will join APS’ Claire Bishop in leading the evening’s conversation.

Whether you’re passionate about politics, arts, wellness, education, faith, sustainability, or social justice, this was a chance to influence the future of local programming and help shape a vibrant and inclusive community.

Event Highlights:

• • Leaders’ Panel: Community organization leaders talked about current and upcoming programming.
  • Interactive Feedback Session: Attendees shared their thoughts about the types of programs that would best serve our community’s needs.
  • Networking Opportunity: Participants connected with fellow community members and leaders over a beer or nonalcoholic drink.

In the spring of 2013, four friends met over a few beers (which, as you know, is where most great ideas hatch) to talk beer: drinking it, brewing it, sharing it, and everything to love about it. Their desire to create great beer in a fun environment, and sharing that experience with all of Kansas City gave birth to the idea of Brew Lab: a place for home brewers of all all backgrounds and experience levels to improve their craft, create better beer, and have more fun doing it.

An accountant. An industrial real estate broker and developer. An IT entrepreneur. A college professor. All with varied levels of brewing expertise and favorite brews, now spreading their love of beer with Kansas City.  Learn more here.
