• DATE: Thursday, Feb. 13th, 2025
• TIME: 5:30-7 PM

The purpose of Design Justice Happy Hour is to bring together people working, organizing and dreaming for justice in New Orleans. This is a social space for you - whether you identify as a ‘designer’ or not.

We support a community of changemakers in our city and state, in and beyond our roles as workers in education, health care, entrepreneurship, government, culture and the arts.

Join hosts Asia-Vinae Palmer and Chris Daemmrich as we talk current events, principles and practices. Some Happy Hours may feature a book or other media to inspire our conversations. No prior reading required!

Our February 13, 2025 event will spotlight our location host, the REACH Center. The REACH Center is a new initiative from the New Orleans Public Library, featuring a free coworking space, and public art gallery, with a focus on access and opportunity, located in the historic Corpus Christi School.
