City Civics Day Highlight and/or Member Highlight
Multiple members of Strong Towns Chicago attended the 2nd Annual City Civics Day and our group photo was featured in the Department of Planning and Development (DPD) email newsletter as well as their Twitter! We can’t help being so popular.

Lastly and perhaps most delightfully, Strong Towns Chicago leader Aaron Feldman was caught in the background of the Jeremy Allen White Lookalike contest by multiple media outlets including CNN.
Strong Towns member Aaron Feldman appeared in the BBC, CNN, the Tribune, and other publications for his resemblance to JAW!
Talk to you more on slack! As always, be sure to join us on our email list, Slack, Instagram, and BlueSky if you’re not already!
