Join make:good for an evening of Food for Thought, as we discuss what supports us in creating spaces and experiences rooted in BELONGING. Each course will be accompanied by conversation starters and speakers where we will be exchanging a delicious meal for attendees’ thoughts and contributions.

Speakers will include a mix of community leaders, local residents, industry peers and clients to allow us to explore how all these different partners define BELONGING and the alchemy required to make a place really thrive.
