Description:

Since its founding in 2009, the Design for America Network has worked in hundreds of communities across the country. This year’s annual DFA Summit challenges participants to reflect on their role as social innovators and explore the possibilities of designing within communities. With thought-provoking keynotes, immersive design-sprint on climate-change, industry working sessions, and masterclasses across disciplines, participants are inspired to define, shape and grow their communities to make a difference.

Be sure to join us for the DFA Summit 2019 Kickoff Event: Communities for Sustainability.

This event is hosted by Edelman and takes place in downtown Chicago on Thursday, August 8. Participation is included in Summit 2019 tickets for all tracks. Additional tickets for the general public are available as well.
