The Town Hall opened in 1921 as a forum for public education. From 1935 to 1956, Town Hall hosted the Peabody Award-Winning “America’s Town Meeting of the Air,” which invited leading thinkers to discuss complex social, political, and economic issues of the day.
In this new series, Town Hall returns to its roots. A Return to Civic Discourse features visionaries and thinkers who explore some of the nation’s most complex challenges—and offer thought-provoking ideas that can help solve them. Panel discussions are followed by lively Q&As from the audience in the hall and those viewing the live stream.
Join Town Hall as guests illuminate the issues and provide glimpses into a better common future.
This event will focus on the low-wage work crisis.
Free for students and seniors, with a suggested admission of $5 for all others.
