The foundation for the Imagine KC project. This innovative forum is comprised of a series of concurrent small-group discussions on topics you feel are important to the development of regional sustainability. What's discussed is up to you. You may volunteer to serve as a facilitator (discussion leader) for one of the groups, or simply participate in the discussions.

Event format
When the session begins, everyone will gather in one room to hear instructions. As a group and individually, you'll come up with ideas about what topics are important to the development of regional sustainability. Then you’ll break into smaller groups and have the opportunity to serve as a discussion leader for one of the groups, or simply participate in the discussions.
This meeting is built on the concept that participants, who will be allowed to move around from group to group and join whichever discussion they find most intriguing, will identify the most desirable and significant topics by gathering in those physical locations.
