McCloskey Speaker Series: The Human City: Urbanism for the Rest of Us with Joel Kotkin

The McCloskey Speaker Series presents a unique and diverse roster of distinguished speakers. The series is made possible by a generous donation from the McCloskey Family Charitable Foundation.

joel_kotkinFeaturing Joel Kotkin, Presidential Fellow of Urban Futures at Chapman University and Executive Director of the Center for Opportunity Urbanism. Kotkin will discuss his newest book, The Human City: Urbanism for the Rest of Us (Agate, April 2016), which challenges the way we think about our cities.
