SUMMARY:Let's Talk Lowell
DESCRIPTION:Want to join a community dialogue about the issues facing Lowell such as housing\, downtown\, immigration\, transportation\, and more? Drop in for roundtable “World Café” style conversations facilitated by DIY Lowell with neighbors\, experts\, and community leaders. Share your concerns\, ideas\, and dreams for Lowell – and turn those ideas into action! \nWe meet fourth Thursdays\, January through October\, 5:45 pm at LTC (246 Market Street). RSVP at https://diylowell.org/letstalk \nLet’s Talk Lowell was inspired by the significant changes Lowell experienced in 2024-25: closures and relocations of arts and cultural organizations\, challenges faced by businesses and immigrants\, and ongoing heartbreak of homelessness and sustainability issues. These developments highlighted the importance of coming together to address these pressing topics and create a brighter future for our city. \nIn addition\, there are so many people working hard to keep Lowell vibrant\, maintain and grow businesses\, and help people in need. It’s critical to connect with them and make sure we’re doing all we can to support one another. \nDIY Lowell is supported in part by a grant from MassHumanities; in part by the City of Lowell; and in part by generous donations from businesses\, organizations\, and individuals including the following Comet-level sponsors: Greater Lowell Community Foundation\, Enterprise Bank.
