Urban Charrette, CNU Tampa Bay Host:'Urbanism On Tap 3.3: Youthpreneurs'

Tampa's Urban Charrette and the Congress for the New Urbanism (CNU) Tampa Bay will host Urbanism on Tap at the Pour House in the Channel District of downtown Tampa on July 8, 2014 starting at 5:30 p.m.

Urbanism on Tap is a recurring open mic event, focused on generating constructive conversations within the community about current ideas and trends that are shaping the city of Tampa.

Moderators and attendees are invited to share their views and stories related to the topic of the day. The intention of the event is to generate a lively exchange of ideas, which will enhance our ability to make Tampa a more livable city.

The upcoming event, the third in a three-part series, is entitled "Youthpreneurs.'' This last event of the series features Tampa's young entrepreneurs involved in startups, creative professions and small businesses. How do public or private interests support young professionals and small businesses? What do such professionals and businesses need to thrive? The event will focus on how these young professionals and small businesses may shape urban development in Tampa and revitalize the city's downtown, an urban trend that is sweeping the rest of the nation.

The events are free and open to the public.

Organizers encourage people to visit Urbanism on Tap's Facebook page and website to continue the conversation online following the event.
