Enjoy an Anchorage Design Week special guest presentation by Strong Towns founder Chuck Marohn, presented by the Alaska Design Forum. Strong Towns supports thousands of people across the United States and Canada and advocates for a radically new way of thinking about the way we build our world.
Charles “Chuck” Marohn is the founder and president of Strong Towns. He is a land use planner and civil engineer with decades of experience. He holds a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering and a Master of Urban and Regional Planning, both from the University of Minnesota. In addition to years of award-winning content created and shared by he and his team, Marohn was recently a keynote speaker at the Anchorage Assembly’s fall Housing Summit and participated in walking tours of Anchorage, including with the Reconnecting Fairview project team. His November visit to Anchorage seeded conversations that will continue on as multiple local community organizations share insights and resources for advocacy and advancing smart development.
Entry for the event will be via the Museum's 7th Avenue entrance with reception beginning at 6 p.m.
Anchorage Design Week is a project of the Anchorage Museum in collaboration with the Alaska Design Forum and AIGA Alaska. Anchorage Design Week is a member of World Design Weeks.
