Urban Collaborative Info Session + Reception

Introduction to the new campus January 30

This event offers a great introduction to the Conway School's Ecological Design Master's program and its new Urban Collaborative based in Easthampton, Massachusetts. From 3-5 pm we'll provide an information session for prospective students, and from 5-6 pm we'll hold a reception and poster session. Local leaders, planning/design professionals, alums, and other members of the community are encouraged to stop by between 5 and 6. All attendees will experience Mill 180, the historic building where the new facility is being built. Delicious, locally-supplied snacks and beverages provided!
