It Ain’t Just Fluff: Co-Creating Great Places
A conversation with Mimi Graney and MaryCat Chaikin, founders of Relish Management
Wednesday, July 22, 7 p.m.
@ Aeronaut Brewing Company (14 Tyler St., Somerville)
Tickets are free, but space is limited, so get yours today.
Come early for a delicious bowl of local food from Canteen & Co. Menu details to come!
Mimi Graney & MaryCat Chaikin are cofounders of Relish, a project management and consulting firm for place-making, food-based and creative economy initiatives. Relish partners with municipalities, developers and community organizations to plan, create and manage neighborhood activation projects including markets, collaborative work spaces and public art. From launching iconic local experiences such as the Fluff Festival to finding temporary uses for properties awaiting redevelopment, to running local farmers markets which generate over $2.5 M in economic impact, the team has its hands in many of the exciting projects around town and beyond that support local food systems and creative industries.
The Creative Somerville Series is a series of “fireside chats” with locals in design, tech, food, social impact and other fields–celebrating the creative and entrepreneurial energy that makes Somerville great. The Creative Somerville Series is not your typical power point and Q&A. Our free fireside chats are about getting to hear someone’s story, learning about how they think and create, and getting to share creative energy and ideas in an intimate setting. The free events are co-curated by Landscape Designer Mia Scharphie and Somerville Beat Founder Elyse Andrews and held at Aeronaut Brewing Company. They are co-sponsored bySomerville Local First and have been featured in BostInno.
