Please join WX for Culture in Crisis: The Role of Cultural Institutions in Real Estate and Recovery virtual event. In the face of a worldwide pandemic, cultural institutions are in crisis. Shuttered public spaces and huge revenue losses leave many organizations fighting just for survival. But how essential is arts and culture to the real estate industry and vice versa? What have we learned in the past year about the relationship between the arts and urban development and how do we apply those lessons in a time of major social reckoning across America? This panel will hear from four leaders, working at the intersection of arts, real estate and urban issues to answer these fundamental questions.
