November 21, 2019: Meg Winchester, Visit Spokane
From the founder of the tech company that just moved to Spokane to the tourist in our restaurants and hotels, virtually everyone comes to Spokane as a visitor. Visit Spokane’s CEO, Meg Winchester, is building her team into a highly collaborative Destination Management Organization that ensures both locals and visitors enjoy what Spokane has to offer. Come learn how tourism impacts you (lower taxes, unemployment, better restaurants) and how we can serve alongside with Visit Spokane to create an even more vibrant and enjoyable community. Program coordinated by Lars Gilberts.

December 5, 2019: The Power of Creative Play
Too often, youth are asked to think about what they want to be and how they will contribute to society someday, implying that they have nothing to contribute in the present. Why not empower youth to create the future now? Spark Central Executive Director Brooke Matson will share the importance of discovering and manifesting our own creative power and helping the youth in our community—especially youth who have experienced disempowerment—to become creators of their own future and the future of their communities. Creative play is a serious matter and is the heart of the philosophy at Spark Central, a 501(c)3 dedicated to igniting creativity, primarily for youth.
Program coordinated by Dave Troyke.
