Strong Towns President Charles Marohn will be presenting in Juneau, Alaska on February 23, 2024.

LOCATION: The Hangar Ballroom | DATE: February 23, 2024 | Time: 5:30 p.m. AST

Why are so many cities and towns across North America going broke? Our roads are deteriorating. Our governments are in debt. No matter how much we increase them, our taxes aren’t enough to fix it all. And no one seems to be able to agree on how we got here—much less how to change the course.

This isn’t just about numbers on a budget. This is about the fate of the communities we love most, and the real people that live there. This is about how to give our citizens, today and tomorrow, a chance at the future they deserve.

If we want American cities to be strong and resilient, we need to change everything about the way we plan and build our places.

Join us for an evening lecture and following Q&A to learn more about the situation communities like ours are experiencing and what Alaskans can learn from the Strong Towns experience and message.
