"How we tell the story of the past, the story of who we were, is really a way of talking about who we want to be." –Neil MacGregor
Join us virtually at ERA Architects for a unique discussion about Heritage and Cultural Health.
An interdisciplinary panel featuring Melanie Marsden (Anishnawbe Health Toronto), John Lorinc (author of Dream States: Smart Cities, Technology, and the Pursuit of Urban Utopias), Lisa Prosper (ERA Senior Advisor on Cultural Landscape), and Michael McClelland (ERA Founding Principal) will discuss how the ways we collectively conceive of, conserve, and interact with heritage buildings, landscapes, streetscapes, and designed spaces can play a significant role in fostering, and hindering, our cultural health.
How does design tell stories about cultural health? In what ways is built space an expression of healthy collective consciousness? Where do urban form ideals come from and what are their consequences? How does the conservation, adaptation, and accessibility of heritage affect our senses of belonging?
