Dayton, Ohio / Culture + Higher Education

Spring in Dayton

Developing the vision for a recurring spring festival in collaboration with partners connected to Wright State University, designed to bring people, ideas, culture, and community together.

Status: In development

  1. The Heart

    A city with more talent, history and appetite than outsiders assume, and people who want a reason to gather every spring.

  2. The Opportunity

    A recurring moment — culture, ideas and community in one place — can become a city's annual signal to itself and everybody else.

  3. The Jump

    Design the festival as an idea worth returning to rather than a one-time event.

  4. The Move

    Developing the vision and framework, shaping the story, and helping align partners connected to the university and the community.

  5. What Happened

    In development. Vision and partner conversations continue.
