Join your neighbors to develop the story, branding, and events that make the neighborhood unique.

Every second Tuesday of the month at 4:30 PM at DGRI’s office (29 Pearl St. NW).

We’re focusing on telling the stories that make Downtown inviting, accessible, and a great place to be. We’re also excited to dive into real conversations about tough topics that neighbors care about.

Some ideas: on-street interviews, training a story corps of neighbors, sharing the Downtown experience on social media and radio, engaging other neighborhoods to make Downtown the “living room” in the “house” of Grand Rapids.
