What Kind of Community Might Mt. Airy Be in 20 Years?

Can we imagine a community that retains its character, but with increased density, more walkable streets, and better transit options? Is it possible for Mt Airy to remain a neighborhood of diversity in all its dimensions? Will Mt Airy’s economic and cultural vitality thrive in all corners of the community? Over the course of two linked classes, Ann Fadullon will guide us in envisioning our future, and discussing how this vision can be realized over time. WMAN is partnering with MALT in presenting these classes, the first of a series to be held over the coming months. We share the belief that engaging neighbors in discussion about the forces at play in the transformation of our community is key to supporting community activism and collaboration.
