Chlorophyll Collective Goals & Philosophy We support a critical mass of green collar jobs, local food production, and gardens of natives that foster a diverse habitat. This summer, we are collaborating to demonstrate and promote these approaches to urban sustainability with the opening of a gallery and meeting space. The Green City Gallery will serve as an incubator to further these innovations with public awareness and policy-support campaigns and engaging events. The space will be open for exhibits, educational workshops, forums and other events. Our aim is to create an exhibit of current, local efforts that address urban sustainability issues, and feature a variety of businesses, organizations, government agencies and academic programs. Contacts:
Kirsti Beneke, Curator, Green City Gallery
