Join the Benwood Foundation, the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, and the Community Research Council for a lecture by Fred Kent, founder and president of Project for Public Spaces, at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, April 8, 2008. Fred Kent is the fourth and final speaker in the 2007-2008 George T. Hunter Lecture Series.
Fred Kent is a leading authority on revitalizing city spaces and one of the foremost thinkers in livability, smart growth and the future of the city.
