Saturday, September 8 | 11am – 3pm

This forum will provide a space in which stakeholders can reflect on the past year’s significance. What is being celebrated? How can we trace the evolution of the connection between the health of the Anacostia and its communities? What are the natural and cultural resources that are integral pieces in the foundation of an equitable, sustainable city? What challenges remain? Next steps? What does a reclaimed river mean for all residents?
