On the Table, a city-wide, community-driven conversation, is taking place all next week — Sun., April 10-Sat., April 16.

This is our chance, as proud Lexingtonians, to make our voices heard on the issues that are affecting our city the most — new parks, affordable housing, public transit, new businesses incentives + so much more.

But as the saying goes, you can’t just talk about it — you have to be about it. And in this case, that means showing up. Community leaders + organizations are hosting tables around the city that everyone is invited to.

Here’s how + where you can get involved.

Step 1

Show up at one of the following locations. You can find a table at breweries, libraries, parks, coffee shops, art galleries + more. There are definitely spots close to your section of the wagon wheel. Meeting times also vary from morning to eveningmaking it convenient for everyone to join in.

Step 2

Partake in a one-hour public discussion. Come prepared to engage with other citizens about civic topics that you feel are important to the future of Lexington’s growth.

Step 3

At the end of the discussion fill out a survey about how Lexington is growing + changing. Data gathered from the survey will be used to shape Lexington’s Comprehensive Plan, an essential document for planning our city’s future.

Honestly, that’s it.

We’re looking forward to joining in on the conversation next week. If you see us at a table, say hello.
