Each panelist will speak briefly about the idea from their perspective and then have a dialogue (with Q&A) from the audience. The event is coordinated by Professor John McRae, FAIA.

The event relates to McRae’s fifth-year studio which is exploring a “live/work arts facility for downtown Knoxville, to include a range of the arts/music as yet not determined, plus housing, ancillary and support facilities for the arts, appropriate commercial and other related functions.”
