Event Description:

Join us for an inside look at the Build a Better Grinnell project, a community-driven initiative designed to identify and prioritize local needs. Grinnell College Professor Monty Roper and Director of Community Development, Melissa Strovers, will walk through the planning and organization behind this effort, including the project’s goals, guiding principles, and research methods. Learn
how the initiative was structured to ensure broad community engagement and a data-driven approach to understanding Grinnell’s needs.

Bucket Courses is a series of engaging and thought-provoking sessions. Held at 10:00 AM in the Caulkins Community Room at Drake Community Library, these courses offer community members a chance to explore a variety of topics presented by distinguished speakers.  

These sessions are free and open to the public. Seating is limited, so early arrival is encouraged.
