DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P
 resident and CEO\, Eastern Market Partnership. The Fresh Truck Mobile Mark
 et is one component of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program\, which se
 eksto improve nutrition\, reduce hunger\, prevent chronic disease\, and ad
 vance long-term food security throughtargeted investments\, strategic part

 lace management. This year\, an IDA member jury selected winners in leader
 ship development\; organizational management\; economic development\; mark
 eting\, communications and events\; planning\, design and infrastructure\;
  policy and advocacy\; and public space management and operations. DDP’s
  Peer Review and community engagement initiatives won in the Policy and Ad
 vocacy category. The I-375 Reconnecting Communities Project\, led by the M
 ichigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) and the City of Detroit\, prop
 osed replacing a downtown freeway with a surface-level boulevard. Early de
 signs prioritized traffic flow\, relied on outdated data and were introduc
 ed without fully integrating meaningful public input\, leaving residents a
 nd business leaders questioning whether the project reflected a shared vis
 ion for Detroit’s future. Backed by a $3.2 million grant from The Kresge
  Foundation\, DDP stepped forward to lead an independent Peer Review and a
  comprehensive engagement process that brought together residents\, corpor
 ate and small business leaders\, institutional partners\, and visitor pers
 pectives. The effort reframed the project around current data\, best pract
 ices and community priorities\, and united diverse stakeholders\, leverage
 d catalytic public funding for maximum economic and placemaking impact and
  established a replicable framework for community-led infrastructure plann
 ing. “The Pinnacle Award is a tremendous honor for the Downtown Detroit 
 Partnership and our partners which affirms the depth of our efforts to ens
 ure a community-driven process that respects Detroit’s past while shapin
 g its future. The I-375 Peer Review demonstrates what is possible when we 
 listen to the community and work together toward a shared vision. We thank
  the International Downtown Association for recognizing this work and the 
 many partners who contributed their expertise and perspectives to this imp
 ortant process\,” said Eric B. Larson\, CEO of the Downtown Detroit Part
 nership. DDP was recognized for their award-winning project during an awar
 ds ceremony at the 72nd Annual Conference & Marketplace. IDA’s Annual Co
 nference & Marketplace is the premier gathering for professional place man
 agers and urban champions creating vibrant and healthy cities around the w
 orld. For more information about the session and conference\, please visit

 e Award for setting the new standard for improving cities around the world
 \,” said David Downey\, IDA president and CEO. “The DDP’s I-375 Peer
  Review has made an impact on its community and the people who live\, work

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P

DESCRIPTION:Make a Reservation\nShowtimes are at 7:30pm and 9:30pm. Doors 
 open at 5pm for dinner. Seating begins at 6pm for “Dinner & a Show”. T
 he second show starts seating at 9pm.\nSaxophonist Kasan Belgrave is a asc
 ending talent newly emerging in the role of a compositional leader. His en
 ergetic playing style and improvisational finesse derives from influences 
 of early bebop and jazz\, as well flares of fusion and gospel. His musical
  prowess has more recently been shown through new innovative compositions.
  \nThe record “Dual Citizen” is an introductory reflection of Kasan’
 s own consciousness through experience of musical nurturing & professional
  practice from the Detroit jazz mentorship empire\, led by his father\, tr
 umpeter Marcus Belgrave. It provides a glimpse of Kasan’s endless curiou
 sness of sonic ingenuity. \nIn the formative years of his career\, that sa
 me mentorship was present in the musical institutions\, as he studied with
  Andrew Bishop\, Benny Green\, and Robert Hurst at the University of Michi
 gan then held an assistantship under the direction of Diego Rivera and Rod
 ney Whitaker at Michigan State University. \nKasan has toured as a multi-w
 oodwind instrumentalist with Jazz @ Lincoln Center w/ Wynton Marsalis\, pe
 rformed in multiple residencies curated by Terri Lynn Carrington\, perform
 ed with Karriem Riggins\, and Etienne Charles. The 27-year-old multi-woodw
 ind instrumentalist has also made rounds performing in every corner of the
  Detroit music scene\, immersing himself in Latin\, R&B\, and techno. \nBe
 lgrave is just one of many who was nurtured in the realm. The lineup for 
 “Dual Citizen” might be the most outright product of that very circle 
 of mentorship. Bassist Jonathan Muir-Cotton\, finishing his degree at MSU\
 , is currently rotating in Christian Sands Trio\; Louis Jones aka “WavyL
 ou”\, a gun-slinging drummer who has the likes of the Haynes’ and Roac
 h’s\, recently hit with ELEW and Johnny O’Neal in Detroit\; Brendon Da
 vis\, a virtuosic voice on piano shortly studying with the great Chick Cor
 ea\, is established in composition and arranging of the gospel scene \; th
 e enigmatic Allen Dennard has a trailblazing trumpet sound\, recently shar
 ing stages with Dwele and Mike Phillips\; and Michael Abbo\, the genial me
 nace on both trombone and bass\, recently played with Johnny Oneal and Daf
 nis Prieto. The close fellowship of this group is a sentiment to the power
  of their sound as the Kasan Belgrave Sextet.

 ward Recognizes Innovative Achievement in Urban Place Management 								\
 n				\n				\n				\n									DETROIT – The International Downtown Associa
 tion (IDA) has recognized the Downtown Detroit Partnership (DDP) with the 
 Downtown Achievement Pinnacle Award for its work and initiatives related t
 o the DDP’s I-375 Peer Review and community engagement. The DDP’s proj
 ect submission is titled “A New Standard for Community-Driven Engagement
 : Repairing the Past and Shaping the Future.” Each year\, IDA recognizes
  outstanding projects through the Downtown Achievement Awards\, which hono
 r organizations worldwide for advancing urban centers. Its highest honor\,
  the Pinnacle Award\, celebrates the most inspiring innovations in urban p
 lace management. This year\, an IDA member jury selected winners in leader
 ship development\; organizational management\; economic development\; mark
 eting\, communications and events\; planning\, design and infrastructure\;
  policy and advocacy\; and public space management and operations. DDP’s
  Peer Review and community engagement initiatives won in the Policy and Ad
 vocacy category. The I-375 Reconnecting Communities Project\, led by the M
 ichigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) and the City of Detroit\, prop
 osed replacing a downtown freeway with a surface-level boulevard. Early de
 signs prioritized traffic flow\, relied on outdated data and were introduc
 ed without fully integrating meaningful public input\, leaving residents a
 nd business leaders questioning whether the project reflected a shared vis
 ion for Detroit’s future. Backed by a $3.2 million grant from The Kresge
  Foundation\, DDP stepped forward to lead an independent Peer Review and a
  comprehensive engagement process that brought together residents\, corpor
 ate and small business leaders\, institutional partners\, and visitor pers
 pectives. The effort reframed the project around current data\, best pract
 ices and community priorities\, and united diverse stakeholders\, leverage
 d catalytic public funding for maximum economic and placemaking impact and
  established a replicable framework for community-led infrastructure plann
 ing. “The Pinnacle Award is a tremendous honor for the Downtown Detroit 
 Partnership and our partners which affirms the depth of our efforts to ens
 ure a community-driven process that respects Detroit’s past while shapin
 g its future. The I-375 Peer Review demonstrates what is possible when we 
 listen to the community and work together toward a shared vision. We thank
  the International Downtown Association for recognizing this work and the 
 many partners who contributed their expertise and perspectives to this imp
 ortant process\,” said Eric B. Larson\, CEO of the Downtown Detroit Part
 nership. DDP was recognized for their award-winning project during an awar
 ds ceremony at the 72nd Annual Conference & Marketplace. IDA’s Annual Co
 nference & Marketplace is the premier gathering for professional place man
 agers and urban champions creating vibrant and healthy cities around the w
 orld. For more information about the session and conference\, please visit
  the event webpage. “DDP’s innovative project received the IDA Pinnacl
 e Award for setting the new standard for improving cities around the world
 \,” said David Downey\, IDA president and CEO. “The DDP’s I-375 Peer
  Review has made an impact on its community and the people who live\, work
 \, and play there\, and is evidence of the continued commitment to champio
 n livable\, vital\, and thriving urban centers.” Additional information

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P
 resident and CEO\, Eastern Market Partnership. The Fresh Truck Mobile Mark
 et is one component of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program\, which se
 eksto improve nutrition\, reduce hunger\, prevent chronic disease\, and ad
 vance long-term food security throughtargeted investments\, strategic part

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P
 resident and CEO\, Eastern Market Partnership. The Fresh Truck Mobile Mark
 et is one component of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program\, which se
 eksto improve nutrition\, reduce hunger\, prevent chronic disease\, and ad
 vance long-term food security throughtargeted investments\, strategic part
 nerships\, and innovative public health programming. Initial service locat
 ions include:• Highland Park• Inkster• Ecorse• Wayne• River Roug
 e• Westland• Hamtramck• Harper Woods• Romulus• Taylor• Lincoln
  Park The program will continue expanding to serve communities across Wayn
 e County\, with routes and schedules updated quarterly based on community 
 need and resident feedback. Several soft launches have already generated p
 ositive responses from residents\, demonstrating the demand for convenient
  access to fresh\, healthy food. 								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n

DESCRIPTION:Make a Reservation\nSHOWTIMES ARE AT 7:30PM & 9:30PM FOR THIS 
 PERFORMANCE. Doors open at 5pm for dinner. Seating begins at 6pm for “D
 inner & a Show”. The second show starts seating at 9pm.\nMusicians pay n
 o cover when they bring their instrument. \nSaxophonist Houston Patton is 
 a rising star in Detroit’s Jazz community. Following in the footsteps of
  his father\, Houston began playing the saxophone at a very young age. Und
 er the mentorship and tutelage of saxophonists such as Harry Patton\, Dary
 l Beebe\, Jordan Vanhemert\, Wendell Harrison\, and Andrew Bishop\, Housto
 n has explored many genres ranging from gospel to hard bop.  \nPatton sta
 rted his professional career at the age of 20\, performing with Kevin Jone
 s & Tenth World\, at Grand Rapids jazz club\, GRNoir. This led to many mor
 e opportunities as a sideman and bandleader in the Grand Rapids and Detroi
 t music scenes. To this day\, Patton continues to perform with Kevin Jones
  & Tenth World\, and a host of  Detroit and West Michigan Groups.  \nIn 
 2023\, Houston spent four months in New York as a student in the “New Yo
 rk Arts Program.” During this time he interned as an assistant to Brando
 n Ross\, and as an archiver and stage manager at Roulette Intermedium. Thi
 s time also allowed him to explore the jazz scene\, by playing at countles
 s jam sessions\, which led to gigs with notable musicians such as drummer\
 , Winard Harper\, and pianist\, JC Hopkins. Houston leads ensembles of var
 ying sizes\, playing at venues\, such as Cliff Bell’s\, Blue Llama\, and
  GRNoir. He has also performed sets at The Muskegon Shoreline Jazz Festiva
 l\, the Lansing Shoreline Jazz Festival\, Dirty Dog Jazz Cafe\, Preservati
 on Hall\, Mahogany Jazz Hall\, Minton’s Playhouse\, and a host of other 
 notable venues.  \nIn April 2024\, Patton released his first album as a b
 and leader\, entitled “Here We Are” featuring a quintet of young Detro
 it jazz musicians named\, “Quintessential”. Patton decided to official
 ly form this group after a series of successful gigs with these specific m
 usicians. After a very special night at Detroit’s Cliff’s Bells\, Quin
 tessential received a standing ovation. There was a clear desire for the g
 roup to record their sound\, so in January of 2024 Quintessential decided 
 to have their original compositions recorded by Benjamin Green. Along with
  Houston on saxophone\, the album features Jauron Perry on trumpet\, Dylan
  Sherman on bass\, William Hill III on Rhodes\, and Samuel Melkonian on dr
 ums.  \nHouston plays on SYOS mouthpieces.

 Downtown Achievement Pinnacle Award for its work and initiatives related t

 : Repairing the Past and Shaping the Future.” Each year\, IDA recognizes
  outstanding projects through the Downtown Achievement Awards\, which hono

  the Pinnacle Award\, celebrates the most inspiring innovations in urban p

 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P
 resident and CEO\, Eastern Market Partnership. The Fresh Truck Mobile Mark
 et is one component of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program\, which se
 eksto improve nutrition\, reduce hunger\, prevent chronic disease\, and ad
 vance long-term food security throughtargeted investments\, strategic part
 nerships\, and innovative public health programming. Initial service locat
 ions include:• Highland Park• Inkster• Ecorse• Wayne• River Roug
 e• Westland• Hamtramck• Harper Woods• Romulus• Taylor• Lincoln
  Park The program will continue expanding to serve communities across Wayn
 e County\, with routes and schedules updated quarterly based on community 
 need and resident feedback. Several soft launches have already generated p
 ositive responses from residents\, demonstrating the demand for convenient
  access to fresh\, healthy food. 								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P
 resident and CEO\, Eastern Market Partnership. The Fresh Truck Mobile Mark
 et is one component of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program\, which se
 eksto improve nutrition\, reduce hunger\, prevent chronic disease\, and ad
 vance long-term food security throughtargeted investments\, strategic part
 nerships\, and innovative public health programming. Initial service locat
 ions include:• Highland Park• Inkster• Ecorse• Wayne• River Roug
 e• Westland• Hamtramck• Harper Woods• Romulus• Taylor• Lincoln
  Park The program will continue expanding to serve communities across Wayn
 e County\, with routes and schedules updated quarterly based on community 
 need and resident feedback. Several soft launches have already generated p
 ositive responses from residents\, demonstrating the demand for convenient
  access to fresh\, healthy food. 								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th

DESCRIPTION:IDA Awards Top Industry Honor to Downtown Detroit PartnershipA
 ward Recognizes Innovative Achievement in Urban Place Management 								\
 n				\n				\n				\n									DETROIT – The International Downtown Associa
 tion (IDA) has recognized the Downtown Detroit Partnership (DDP) with the 
 Downtown Achievement Pinnacle Award for its work and initiatives related t
 o the DDP’s I-375 Peer Review and community engagement. The DDP’s proj
 ect submission is titled “A New Standard for Community-Driven Engagement
 : Repairing the Past and Shaping the Future.” Each year\, IDA recognizes
  outstanding projects through the Downtown Achievement Awards\, which hono
 r organizations worldwide for advancing urban centers. Its highest honor\,
  the Pinnacle Award\, celebrates the most inspiring innovations in urban p
 lace management. This year\, an IDA member jury selected winners in leader
 ship development\; organizational management\; economic development\; mark
 eting\, communications and events\; planning\, design and infrastructure\;
  policy and advocacy\; and public space management and operations. DDP’s
  Peer Review and community engagement initiatives won in the Policy and Ad
 vocacy category. The I-375 Reconnecting Communities Project\, led by the M
 ichigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) and the City of Detroit\, prop
 osed replacing a downtown freeway with a surface-level boulevard. Early de
 signs prioritized traffic flow\, relied on outdated data and were introduc
 ed without fully integrating meaningful public input\, leaving residents a
 nd business leaders questioning whether the project reflected a shared vis
 ion for Detroit’s future. Backed by a $3.2 million grant from The Kresge
  Foundation\, DDP stepped forward to lead an independent Peer Review and a
  comprehensive engagement process that brought together residents\, corpor
 ate and small business leaders\, institutional partners\, and visitor pers
 pectives. The effort reframed the project around current data\, best pract
 ices and community priorities\, and united diverse stakeholders\, leverage
 d catalytic public funding for maximum economic and placemaking impact and
  established a replicable framework for community-led infrastructure plann
 ing. “The Pinnacle Award is a tremendous honor for the Downtown Detroit 
 Partnership and our partners which affirms the depth of our efforts to ens
 ure a community-driven process that respects Detroit’s past while shapin
 g its future. The I-375 Peer Review demonstrates what is possible when we 
 listen to the community and work together toward a shared vision. We thank
  the International Downtown Association for recognizing this work and the 
 many partners who contributed their expertise and perspectives to this imp
 ortant process\,” said Eric B. Larson\, CEO of the Downtown Detroit Part
 nership. DDP was recognized for their award-winning project during an awar
 ds ceremony at the 72nd Annual Conference & Marketplace. IDA’s Annual Co
 nference & Marketplace is the premier gathering for professional place man
 agers and urban champions creating vibrant and healthy cities around the w
 orld. For more information about the session and conference\, please visit
  the event webpage. “DDP’s innovative project received the IDA Pinnacl
 e Award for setting the new standard for improving cities around the world
 \,” said David Downey\, IDA president and CEO. “The DDP’s I-375 Peer
  Review has made an impact on its community and the people who live\, work
 \, and play there\, and is evidence of the continued commitment to champio
 n livable\, vital\, and thriving urban centers.” Additional information

  premiere live entertainers over the past ten years plus\, Ben Sharkey inf
 uses his live performances with a hip and sultry fire\, bringing his artfu
 l swagger to the stage with a colorful fusion of old school cool\, contemp
 orary jazz\, soul and pop. Since the charismatic\nvocalist posted his firs
 t raw home videos of himself singing Michael Buble and Frank Sinatra class
 ics to YouTube in 2007\, he has amassed over 5 million views worldwide for
  over 70 clips. \nBy increasingly popular demand\, the Michigan native has
  amassed hundreds of performances at jazz hotspots like Cliff Bell’s and
  a five year and counting residency at the Axis Lounge at the MGM Grand De
 troit. He’s been compared to everyone from Frank and Buble to Dean Marti
 n\, Mel Torme and Harry Connick\, Jr. – yet he’s evolved from being a 
 stellar vocal interpreter to master storyteller and songwriter. \nCollabor
 ating with his pianist Chris Codish\, Ben has written clever\, crafty tune
 s expressing every aspect of love\, deep heartfelt connections and the she
 er joy of living life to the fullest in the sexiest\, naughtiest\, most se
 nsual and playful way possible. Stylistically\, he lets his muse lead the 
 way to booming percussion driven landscapes infused with jazz\, pop\, swin
 g\, R&B\, Latin and crisp\, edgy house-dance beats that make him the ultim
 ate contemporary hipster as well as a masterful throwback artist.

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P
 resident and CEO\, Eastern Market Partnership. The Fresh Truck Mobile Mark
 et is one component of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program\, which se
 eksto improve nutrition\, reduce hunger\, prevent chronic disease\, and ad
 vance long-term food security throughtargeted investments\, strategic part
 nerships\, and innovative public health programming. Initial service locat
 ions include:• Highland Park• Inkster• Ecorse• Wayne• River Roug
 e• Westland• Hamtramck• Harper Woods• Romulus• Taylor• Lincoln
  Park The program will continue expanding to serve communities across Wayn
 e County\, with routes and schedules updated quarterly based on community 
 need and resident feedback. Several soft launches have already generated p
 ositive responses from residents\, demonstrating the demand for convenient
  access to fresh\, healthy food. 								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n

 n				\n				\n				\n									DETROIT – The International Downtown Associa

 Downtown Achievement Pinnacle Award for its work and initiatives related t
 o the DDP’s I-375 Peer Review and community engagement. The DDP’s proj
 ect submission is titled “A New Standard for Community-Driven Engagement
 : Repairing the Past and Shaping the Future.” Each year\, IDA recognizes
  outstanding projects through the Downtown Achievement Awards\, which hono
 r organizations worldwide for advancing urban centers. Its highest honor\,
  the Pinnacle Award\, celebrates the most inspiring innovations in urban p
 lace management. This year\, an IDA member jury selected winners in leader
 ship development\; organizational management\; economic development\; mark
 eting\, communications and events\; planning\, design and infrastructure\;
  policy and advocacy\; and public space management and operations. DDP’s
  Peer Review and community engagement initiatives won in the Policy and Ad
 vocacy category. The I-375 Reconnecting Communities Project\, led by the M
 ichigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) and the City of Detroit\, prop
 osed replacing a downtown freeway with a surface-level boulevard. Early de
 signs prioritized traffic flow\, relied on outdated data and were introduc
 ed without fully integrating meaningful public input\, leaving residents a
 nd business leaders questioning whether the project reflected a shared vis
 ion for Detroit’s future. Backed by a $3.2 million grant from The Kresge
  Foundation\, DDP stepped forward to lead an independent Peer Review and a
  comprehensive engagement process that brought together residents\, corpor
 ate and small business leaders\, institutional partners\, and visitor pers
 pectives. The effort reframed the project around current data\, best pract
 ices and community priorities\, and united diverse stakeholders\, leverage
 d catalytic public funding for maximum economic and placemaking impact and
  established a replicable framework for community-led infrastructure plann
 ing. “The Pinnacle Award is a tremendous honor for the Downtown Detroit 
 Partnership and our partners which affirms the depth of our efforts to ens

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P
 resident and CEO\, Eastern Market Partnership. The Fresh Truck Mobile Mark
 et is one component of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program\, which se
 eksto improve nutrition\, reduce hunger\, prevent chronic disease\, and ad
 vance long-term food security throughtargeted investments\, strategic part
 nerships\, and innovative public health programming. Initial service locat
 ions include:• Highland Park• Inkster• Ecorse• Wayne• River Roug
 e• Westland• Hamtramck• Harper Woods• Romulus• Taylor• Lincoln
  Park The program will continue expanding to serve communities across Wayn
 e County\, with routes and schedules updated quarterly based on community 
 need and resident feedback. Several soft launches have already generated p
 ositive responses from residents\, demonstrating the demand for convenient
  access to fresh\, healthy food. 								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P
 resident and CEO\, Eastern Market Partnership. The Fresh Truck Mobile Mark
 et is one component of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program\, which se
 eksto improve nutrition\, reduce hunger\, prevent chronic disease\, and ad
 vance long-term food security throughtargeted investments\, strategic part
 nerships\, and innovative public health programming. Initial service locat
 ions include:• Highland Park• Inkster• Ecorse• Wayne• River Roug
 e• Westland• Hamtramck• Harper Woods• Romulus• Taylor• Lincoln
  Park The program will continue expanding to serve communities across Wayn
 e County\, with routes and schedules updated quarterly based on community 
 need and resident feedback. Several soft launches have already generated p
 ositive responses from residents\, demonstrating the demand for convenient
  access to fresh\, healthy food. 								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n

 n				\n				\n				\n									DETROIT – The International Downtown Associa

 Downtown Achievement Pinnacle Award for its work and initiatives related t
 o the DDP’s I-375 Peer Review and community engagement. The DDP’s proj
 ect submission is titled “A New Standard for Community-Driven Engagement
 : Repairing the Past and Shaping the Future.” Each year\, IDA recognizes
  outstanding projects through the Downtown Achievement Awards\, which hono
 r organizations worldwide for advancing urban centers. Its highest honor\,
  the Pinnacle Award\, celebrates the most inspiring innovations in urban p
 lace management. This year\, an IDA member jury selected winners in leader
 ship development\; organizational management\; economic development\; mark
 eting\, communications and events\; planning\, design and infrastructure\;
  policy and advocacy\; and public space management and operations. DDP’s
  Peer Review and community engagement initiatives won in the Policy and Ad
 vocacy category. The I-375 Reconnecting Communities Project\, led by the M

 osed replacing a downtown freeway with a surface-level boulevard. Early de
 signs prioritized traffic flow\, relied on outdated data and were introduc
 ed without fully integrating meaningful public input\, leaving residents a

 ion for Detroit’s future. Backed by a $3.2 million grant from The Kresge
  Foundation\, DDP stepped forward to lead an independent Peer Review and a
  comprehensive engagement process that brought together residents\, corpor
 ate and small business leaders\, institutional partners\, and visitor pers
 pectives. The effort reframed the project around current data\, best pract
 ices and community priorities\, and united diverse stakeholders\, leverage
 d catalytic public funding for maximum economic and placemaking impact and
  established a replicable framework for community-led infrastructure plann
 ing. “The Pinnacle Award is a tremendous honor for the Downtown Detroit 
 Partnership and our partners which affirms the depth of our efforts to ens
 ure a community-driven process that respects Detroit’s past while shapin
 g its future. The I-375 Peer Review demonstrates what is possible when we 
 listen to the community and work together toward a shared vision. We thank
  the International Downtown Association for recognizing this work and the 
 many partners who contributed their expertise and perspectives to this imp
 ortant process\,” said Eric B. Larson\, CEO of the Downtown Detroit Part

  outstanding projects through the Downtown Achievement Awards\, which hono
 r organizations worldwide for advancing urban centers. Its highest honor\,
  the Pinnacle Award\, celebrates the most inspiring innovations in urban p
 lace management. This year\, an IDA member jury selected winners in leader
 ship development\; organizational management\; economic development\; mark
 eting\, communications and events\; planning\, design and infrastructure\;
  policy and advocacy\; and public space management and operations. DDP’s
  Peer Review and community engagement initiatives won in the Policy and Ad
 vocacy category. The I-375 Reconnecting Communities Project\, led by the M
 ichigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) and the City of Detroit\, prop
 osed replacing a downtown freeway with a surface-level boulevard. Early de
 signs prioritized traffic flow\, relied on outdated data and were introduc
 ed without fully integrating meaningful public input\, leaving residents a
 nd business leaders questioning whether the project reflected a shared vis
 ion for Detroit’s future. Backed by a $3.2 million grant from The Kresge
  Foundation\, DDP stepped forward to lead an independent Peer Review and a
  comprehensive engagement process that brought together residents\, corpor
 ate and small business leaders\, institutional partners\, and visitor pers
 pectives. The effort reframed the project around current data\, best pract
 ices and community priorities\, and united diverse stakeholders\, leverage
 d catalytic public funding for maximum economic and placemaking impact and
  established a replicable framework for community-led infrastructure plann
 ing. “The Pinnacle Award is a tremendous honor for the Downtown Detroit 
 Partnership and our partners which affirms the depth of our efforts to ens
 ure a community-driven process that respects Detroit’s past while shapin
 g its future. The I-375 Peer Review demonstrates what is possible when we 
 listen to the community and work together toward a shared vision. We thank
  the International Downtown Association for recognizing this work and the 
 many partners who contributed their expertise and perspectives to this imp
 ortant process\,” said Eric B. Larson\, CEO of the Downtown Detroit Part
 nership. DDP was recognized for their award-winning project during an awar
 ds ceremony at the 72nd Annual Conference & Marketplace. IDA’s Annual Co
 nference & Marketplace is the premier gathering for professional place man
 agers and urban champions creating vibrant and healthy cities around the w
 orld. For more information about the session and conference\, please visit
  the event webpage. “DDP’s innovative project received the IDA Pinnacl
 e Award for setting the new standard for improving cities around the world
 \,” said David Downey\, IDA president and CEO. “The DDP’s I-375 Peer
  Review has made an impact on its community and the people who live\, work
 \, and play there\, and is evidence of the continued commitment to champio
 n livable\, vital\, and thriving urban centers.” Additional information

 Downtown Achievement Pinnacle Award for its work and initiatives related t

 : Repairing the Past and Shaping the Future.” Each year\, IDA recognizes
  outstanding projects through the Downtown Achievement Awards\, which hono

 ices and community priorities\, and united diverse stakeholders\, leverage
 d catalytic public funding for maximum economic and placemaking impact and
  established a replicable framework for community-led infrastructure plann
 ing. “The Pinnacle Award is a tremendous honor for the Downtown Detroit 
 Partnership and our partners which affirms the depth of our efforts to ens
 ure a community-driven process that respects Detroit’s past while shapin
 g its future. The I-375 Peer Review demonstrates what is possible when we

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P
 resident and CEO\, Eastern Market Partnership. The Fresh Truck Mobile Mark
 et is one component of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program\, which se
 eksto improve nutrition\, reduce hunger\, prevent chronic disease\, and ad

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P
 resident and CEO\, Eastern Market Partnership. The Fresh Truck Mobile Mark
 et is one component of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program\, which se
 eksto improve nutrition\, reduce hunger\, prevent chronic disease\, and ad
 vance long-term food security throughtargeted investments\, strategic part
 nerships\, and innovative public health programming. Initial service locat
 ions include:• Highland Park• Inkster• Ecorse• Wayne• River Roug
 e• Westland• Hamtramck• Harper Woods• Romulus• Taylor• Lincoln
  Park The program will continue expanding to serve communities across Wayn
 e County\, with routes and schedules updated quarterly based on community 
 need and resident feedback. Several soft launches have already generated p
 ositive responses from residents\, demonstrating the demand for convenient
  access to fresh\, healthy food. 								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n

 rew Hill\, Don Pullen\, Geri Allen\, Jacky Terrasson\, Gonzalo Rubalcaba\,

 Performing and Visual Arts\, a.k.a. HSPVA. That more recent hall of fame i
 ncludes Jason Moran\, Robert Glasper\, Walter Smith III\, Kendrick Scott\,
  Chris Dave and James Francies. Of course\, within that list there’s yet
  another bloodline\, of musicians who’ve come to define jazz pianism in 
 the 21st century: Moran\, Glasper\, Francies and\, now\, Cornish\, who was
  born and raised in Houston and has been based in Los Angeles for over a d

 ward Recognizes Innovative Achievement in Urban Place Management 								\
 n				\n				\n				\n									DETROIT – The International Downtown Associa
 tion (IDA) has recognized the Downtown Detroit Partnership (DDP) with the 
 Downtown Achievement Pinnacle Award for its work and initiatives related t
 o the DDP’s I-375 Peer Review and community engagement. The DDP’s proj
 ect submission is titled “A New Standard for Community-Driven Engagement
 : Repairing the Past and Shaping the Future.” Each year\, IDA recognizes
  outstanding projects through the Downtown Achievement Awards\, which hono
 r organizations worldwide for advancing urban centers. Its highest honor\,
  the Pinnacle Award\, celebrates the most inspiring innovations in urban p
 lace management. This year\, an IDA member jury selected winners in leader
 ship development\; organizational management\; economic development\; mark
 eting\, communications and events\; planning\, design and infrastructure\;
  policy and advocacy\; and public space management and operations. DDP’s
  Peer Review and community engagement initiatives won in the Policy and Ad
 vocacy category. The I-375 Reconnecting Communities Project\, led by the M
 ichigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) and the City of Detroit\, prop
 osed replacing a downtown freeway with a surface-level boulevard. Early de
 signs prioritized traffic flow\, relied on outdated data and were introduc
 ed without fully integrating meaningful public input\, leaving residents a
 nd business leaders questioning whether the project reflected a shared vis
 ion for Detroit’s future. Backed by a $3.2 million grant from The Kresge
  Foundation\, DDP stepped forward to lead an independent Peer Review and a
  comprehensive engagement process that brought together residents\, corpor
 ate and small business leaders\, institutional partners\, and visitor pers
 pectives. The effort reframed the project around current data\, best pract
 ices and community priorities\, and united diverse stakeholders\, leverage
 d catalytic public funding for maximum economic and placemaking impact and
  established a replicable framework for community-led infrastructure plann
 ing. “The Pinnacle Award is a tremendous honor for the Downtown Detroit 
 Partnership and our partners which affirms the depth of our efforts to ens
 ure a community-driven process that respects Detroit’s past while shapin
 g its future. The I-375 Peer Review demonstrates what is possible when we 
 listen to the community and work together toward a shared vision. We thank
  the International Downtown Association for recognizing this work and the 
 many partners who contributed their expertise and perspectives to this imp
 ortant process\,” said Eric B. Larson\, CEO of the Downtown Detroit Part
 nership. DDP was recognized for their award-winning project during an awar
 ds ceremony at the 72nd Annual Conference & Marketplace. IDA’s Annual Co
 nference & Marketplace is the premier gathering for professional place man
 agers and urban champions creating vibrant and healthy cities around the w
 orld. For more information about the session and conference\, please visit
  the event webpage. “DDP’s innovative project received the IDA Pinnacl
 e Award for setting the new standard for improving cities around the world
 \,” said David Downey\, IDA president and CEO. “The DDP’s I-375 Peer
  Review has made an impact on its community and the people who live\, work
 \, and play there\, and is evidence of the continued commitment to champio
 n livable\, vital\, and thriving urban centers.” Additional information

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P
 resident and CEO\, Eastern Market Partnership. The Fresh Truck Mobile Mark
 et is one component of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program\, which se
 eksto improve nutrition\, reduce hunger\, prevent chronic disease\, and ad
 vance long-term food security throughtargeted investments\, strategic part
 nerships\, and innovative public health programming. Initial service locat
 ions include:• Highland Park• Inkster• Ecorse• Wayne• River Roug
 e• Westland• Hamtramck• Harper Woods• Romulus• Taylor• Lincoln
  Park The program will continue expanding to serve communities across Wayn
 e County\, with routes and schedules updated quarterly based on community 
 need and resident feedback. Several soft launches have already generated p
 ositive responses from residents\, demonstrating the demand for convenient
  access to fresh\, healthy food. 								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n

 ward Recognizes Innovative Achievement in Urban Place Management 								\
 n				\n				\n				\n									DETROIT – The International Downtown Associa
 tion (IDA) has recognized the Downtown Detroit Partnership (DDP) with the 
 Downtown Achievement Pinnacle Award for its work and initiatives related t
 o the DDP’s I-375 Peer Review and community engagement. The DDP’s proj
 ect submission is titled “A New Standard for Community-Driven Engagement
 : Repairing the Past and Shaping the Future.” Each year\, IDA recognizes
  outstanding projects through the Downtown Achievement Awards\, which hono
 r organizations worldwide for advancing urban centers. Its highest honor\,
  the Pinnacle Award\, celebrates the most inspiring innovations in urban p
 lace management. This year\, an IDA member jury selected winners in leader
 ship development\; organizational management\; economic development\; mark
 eting\, communications and events\; planning\, design and infrastructure\;
  policy and advocacy\; and public space management and operations. DDP’s
  Peer Review and community engagement initiatives won in the Policy and Ad
 vocacy category. The I-375 Reconnecting Communities Project\, led by the M
 ichigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) and the City of Detroit\, prop
 osed replacing a downtown freeway with a surface-level boulevard. Early de
 signs prioritized traffic flow\, relied on outdated data and were introduc
 ed without fully integrating meaningful public input\, leaving residents a
 nd business leaders questioning whether the project reflected a shared vis
 ion for Detroit’s future. Backed by a $3.2 million grant from The Kresge
  Foundation\, DDP stepped forward to lead an independent Peer Review and a
  comprehensive engagement process that brought together residents\, corpor
 ate and small business leaders\, institutional partners\, and visitor pers
 pectives. The effort reframed the project around current data\, best pract
 ices and community priorities\, and united diverse stakeholders\, leverage
 d catalytic public funding for maximum economic and placemaking impact and
  established a replicable framework for community-led infrastructure plann
 ing. “The Pinnacle Award is a tremendous honor for the Downtown Detroit 
 Partnership and our partners which affirms the depth of our efforts to ens
 ure a community-driven process that respects Detroit’s past while shapin
 g its future. The I-375 Peer Review demonstrates what is possible when we 
 listen to the community and work together toward a shared vision. We thank
  the International Downtown Association for recognizing this work and the 
 many partners who contributed their expertise and perspectives to this imp
 ortant process\,” said Eric B. Larson\, CEO of the Downtown Detroit Part
 nership. DDP was recognized for their award-winning project during an awar
 ds ceremony at the 72nd Annual Conference & Marketplace. IDA’s Annual Co
 nference & Marketplace is the premier gathering for professional place man
 agers and urban champions creating vibrant and healthy cities around the w
 orld. For more information about the session and conference\, please visit
  the event webpage. “DDP’s innovative project received the IDA Pinnacl
 e Award for setting the new standard for improving cities around the world
 \,” said David Downey\, IDA president and CEO. “The DDP’s I-375 Peer
  Review has made an impact on its community and the people who live\, work
 \, and play there\, and is evidence of the continued commitment to champio
 n livable\, vital\, and thriving urban centers.” Additional information

DESCRIPTION:New Well Wayne initiative brings affordable fresh produce dire
 ctly to neighborhoods where healthy food is hardest to accessWayne County 
 Executive Warren C. Evans has announced the launch of the Well Wayne Fresh
  Truck Mobile Market\, an innovative farmers market on wheels designed to 
 increase access to healthy\, affordable food for residents across Wayne Co
 unty. The launch comes as food insecurity continues to affect families acr
 oss Wayne County. According to Feeding America’s 2023 Map the Meal Gap\,
  17.6% of Wayne County residents—nearly one in five people—experience 
 food insecurity. While these are the most recent available estimates\, ris
 ing grocery costs continue to put added financial strain on many household
 s. Limited transportation\, higher food prices\, and other economic barrie
 rs can make it difficult to access fresh\, healthy food. Nearly 70% of foo
 d-insecure Wayne County residents live in households with incomes below 20
 0% of the federal poverty level\, a rate higher than the Michigan average.
  The Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Market is one strategy to help improve 
 access to affordable\, nutritious food in communities where it is needed m
 ost. The Fresh Truck Mobile Market is part of Well Wayne\, a multi-million
 -dollar investment in public health infrastructure led by Executive Evans 
 to improve health outcomes by addressing the social drivers of health thro
 ugh innovative\, community-based partnerships. “These are increasingly u
 ncertain times we are living in for a number of reasons\, which means it i
 s incumbent upon those of us who have chosen to be public servants to do w
 hatever we can to take care of those who are less able to fulfill all of t
 heir basic needs\,” said Warren C. Evans\, Wayne County Executive. “Th
 is is one Wayne County\, and that means we look out for one another.” Op
 erating as a grocery store on wheels\, the Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile M
 arket will bring fresh\, affordable produce directly to neighborhoods wher
 e access is limited. The program accepts SNAP\, EBT\, Double Up Food Bucks
 \, cash\, and credit/debit cards\, and will operate year-round across mult
 iple cities. “Everyone deserves access to healthy food — without needi
 ng a car to get it. Our Well Wayne Fresh Truck Mobile Markets are mobile g
 rocery stores bringing fresh fruits and veggies directly to neighborhoods 
 in Wayne County — where access is needed most. We understand that mobili
 ty challenges can make it difficult getting to and from the grocery store 
 and cost can also be a barrier.” said Kennyle Johnson\, Director\, Wayne
  County Department of Health\, Human and Veterans Services (HHVS). By addr
 essing transportation and cost barriers\, it promotes community health and
  reduces hunger through convenient\, scheduled stops at central community 
 hubs and special events. This initiative will continue serving as a vital 
 connector across Wayne County communities through at least 2027. “The ne
 w Fresh Truck Mobile Market that is being rolled out throughout Wayne Coun
 ty as part of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program will be a vital lin
 k for so many individuals and families who are struggling with transportat
 ion issues and access to healthy\, fresh and affordable food\,” commente
 d Wayne County Commission Chair Alisha Bell. “This initiative will go a 
 long way towards helping the community fight hunger\, reduce illness and i
 mprove overall public health and well-being.” Recognizing that complex s
 ocietal challenges require collaborative solutions\, Wayne County has part
 nered withEastern Market Partnership to operate the Fresh Truck Mobile Mar
 ket throughout the county. “We at Eastern Market Partnership are excited
  to expand our fresh food access program in partnership with Wayne County.
  Through the Well Wayne initiative\, we will reach each of the 43 communit
 ies in the county and offer innovative approaches to expanding access to f
 resh\, affordable\, and nutrition-dense produce\,” said Katy Trudeau\, P
 resident and CEO\, Eastern Market Partnership. The Fresh Truck Mobile Mark
 et is one component of the Well Wayne Fresh Food Access Program\, which se
 eksto improve nutrition\, reduce hunger\, prevent chronic disease\, and ad
 vance long-term food security throughtargeted investments\, strategic part
 nerships\, and innovative public health programming. Initial service locat
 ions include:• Highland Park• Inkster• Ecorse• Wayne• River Roug
 e• Westland• Hamtramck• Harper Woods• Romulus• Taylor• Lincoln
  Park The program will continue expanding to serve communities across Wayn
 e County\, with routes and schedules updated quarterly based on community 
 need and resident feedback. Several soft launches have already generated p
 ositive responses from residents\, demonstrating the demand for convenient
  access to fresh\, healthy food. 								\n				\n		\n				\n				\n

DESCRIPTION:Showtimes are at 7:30p & 9:30p for this performance. Doors ope
 n at 5pm for dinner. Seating begins at 6pm for “Dinner & a Show”. The 
 second show starts seating at 9pm\nSaxophonist Kasan Belgrave is a ascendi
 ng talent newly emerging in the role of a compositional leader. His energe
 tic playing style and improvisational finesse derives from influences of e
 arly bebop and jazz\, as well flares of fusion and gospel. His musical pro
 wess has more recently been shown through new innovative compositions. \nT
 he record “Dual Citizen” is an introductory reflection of Kasan’s ow
 n consciousness through experience of musical nurturing & professional pra
 ctice from the Detroit jazz mentorship empire\, led by his father\, trumpe
 ter Marcus Belgrave. It provides a glimpse of Kasan’s endless curiousnes
 s of sonic ingenuity. \nIn the formative years of his career\, that same m
 entorship was present in the musical institutions\, as he studied with And
 rew Bishop\, Benny Green\, and Robert Hurst at the University of Michigan 
 then held an assistantship under the direction of Diego Rivera and Rodney 
 Whitaker at Michigan State University. \nKasan has toured as a multi-woodw
 ind instrumentalist with Jazz @ Lincoln Center w/ Wynton Marsalis\, perfor
 med in multiple residencies curated by Terri Lynn Carrington\, performed w
 ith Karriem Riggins\, and Etienne Charles. The 27-year-old multi-woodwind 
 instrumentalist has also made rounds performing in every corner of the Det
 roit music scene\, immersing himself in Latin\, R&B\, and techno. \nBelgra
 ve is just one of many who was nurtured in the realm. The lineup for “Du
 al Citizen” might be the most outright product of that very circle of me
 ntorship. Bassist Jonathan Muir-Cotton\, finishing his degree at MSU\, is 
 currently rotating in Christian Sands Trio\; Louis Jones aka “WavyLou”
 \, a gun-slinging drummer who has the likes of the Haynes’ and Roach’s
 \, recently hit with ELEW and Johnny O’Neal in Detroit\; Brendon Davis\,
  a virtuosic voice on piano shortly studying with the great Chick Corea\, 
 is established in composition and arranging of the gospel scene \; the eni
 gmatic Allen Dennard has a trailblazing trumpet sound\, recently sharing s
 tages with Dwele and Mike Phillips\; and Michael Abbo\, the genial menace 
 on both trombone and bass\, recently played with Johnny Oneal and Dafnis P
 rieto. The close fellowship of this group is a sentiment to the power of t
 heir sound as the Kasan Belgrave Sextet.

 rformance. Doors open at 5pm for dinner. Seating begins at 6pm for “Dinn
 er & a Show”. The second show starts seating at 9pm.\nBorn and raised on
  Detroit’s west side\, Ashton Nickolas Moore began his musical journey
  studying violin\, piano\, percussion and voice before continuing his educ
 ation at Michigan State University\, where he earned undergraduate and gra
 duate degrees in jazz studies. That foundation in Detroit music and jazz w
 ould eventually become the starting point for a career reaching far beyond
  his hometown. \nMoore has performed with celebrated musicians including 
 Jon Hendricks\, Rodney Whitaker\, Wycliffe Gordon\, Cyrus Chestnut\, Chris
 tian McBride and Dianne Reeves\, and has recorded and performed with Japan
 ese recording artist Ken Hirai. In 2005\, he appeared in two performances 
 of Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going On Suite at Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola a
 t Frederick P. Rose Hall in New York. In 2008\, Moore was selected to perf
 orm the national anthem during then-Senator Barack Obama’s presidential 
 campaign stop in Lansing\, Michigan. \nLater that year\, Moore relocated t
 o Japan\, beginning a chapter that would last more than a decade and profo
 undly expand his musical perspective. Working throughout the Tokyo area as
  a vocalist\, recording artist\, songwriter and vocal educator\, he perfor
 med at prominent venues and international festivals throughout Asia. His g
 roup\, The Ashton Moore Organization\, co-headlined Taiwan’s Taichung Ja
 zz Festival before an audience reported at approximately 40\,000. His inte
 rnational work has also included appearances at Tokyo’s Blues Alley Japa
 n\, Body & Soul\, and The Ritz-Carlton Tokyo\, as well as extensive work a
 longside veteran keyboardist and bandleader Philip Woo. \nMoore’s record
 ed work reflects the same range. His album The A.N.M. Music Factor was r
 eleased in 2006\, followed by Downtown with The Ashton Moore Organizatio
 n in 2015\, alongside additional recording and collaborative work. \nToday
 \, Moore brings those experiences back to where his story began: Detroit.
  \nHis current live production\, The Standard\, combines R&B\, soul\, jaz
 z and contemporary music with storytelling\, humor and personal experience
 s collected through years of performing and traveling. Rather than simply 
 presenting a collection of songs\, Moore uses the music to tell the story 
 of where he has been\, the musicians and communities that shaped him\, and
  the standards—musical and otherwise—that he has carried home. \nAt it
 s heart\, The Standard is a Detroit artist returning home with a lifetim
 e of music to share.

 want it to be\, which is the most vibrant and most outstanding place to st
 art and grow a business in this city through the mayor’s Rise Higher ini
 tiative.”  \nSports \n\nThe Tigers had their payback against the Minne

 he second show starts seating at 7pm.\n “Husband-and-wife Cecil and Ari
  Alexander are a hugely gifted\, multi-talented double act.” – Jazz Jo
 urnal  \nAri and Cecil Alexander’s decade long musical collaboration ha
 s been brought to stages across the world such as the Lincoln Center and t
 he Copenhagen jazz festival. A finalist in the 2019 Herbie Hancock Institu
 te of Jazz International Guitar Competition\, Cecil has been hailed by Ja
 zz Guitar Today as “carrying the torch into the future\,” and by Jaz
 zwise as “a superb guitarist in the bop tradition\, with bags of taste\
 , swing and chops.” Holding a Scandinavian sensitivity to an American tr
 adition\, Danish-American Ari Alexander is as equally a jazz musician as s
 he is a singer-songwriter. She was inspired to pursue jazz by her vibrant 
 musical family\, including her grandmother and great-aunt\, jazz vocalist 
 Teddi King. Aarhus Jazz Festival described her 2025 performance as follo
 wing: “Ari treats every note with great imagination\, and especially he
 r mastery and playful use of scat singing sets her apart from other jazz v
 ocalists. Together\, Ari and Cecil anchor a quartet and duo sound that is
  intimate\, dynamic\, and rhythmically alive. Their forthcoming album Kal
 eidoscope is set for release in April 2026\, and it features acrobatic\, 
 energetic originals penned by Ari and Cecil as well as reconstructions of 
 the Great American Songbook.

DESCRIPTION:Join us for our AI Build Night 101! These are beginner-friendl
 y\, hands-on experience designed for exploring new tools\, professionals l
 ooking to streamline their work\, or simply someone curious about what AI 
 can actually do beyond the hype. This session is built for those who have 
 heard the buzz\, maybe experimented with a few tools\, but still feel unsu
 re about how to apply AI and Automation in a meaningful\, practical way. I
 nstead of overwhelming you with technical jargon or abstract concepts\, we
  focus on breaking everything down into clear\, simple ideas you can immed
 iately understand and use. \nThroughout the session\, we take a practical\
 , step-by-step approach to demystifying AI and Automation. You’ll learn 
 what these tools actually are (and aren’t)\, how they fit into real work
 flows\, and where they can create the most impact in your day-to-day work.
  We’ll explore accessible\, no-code and low-code tools that allow you to
  build without needing a technical background\, and we’ll show you how s
 mall automations can lead to significant time savings and increased produc
 tivity. Participants won’t just sit and listen because you’ll be activ
 ely building. Through guided exercises and real-world examples\, you’ll 
 start creating simple automations\, experimenting with AI-powered tools\, 
 and thinking through how these solutions can apply to your own goals. Whet
 her it’s automating repetitive administrative tasks\, organizing and ana
 lyzing information more efficiently\, improving customer interactions\, or
  quickly prototyping a new idea\, you’ll walk away having already taken 
 action. \nBeyond the tools themselves\, this Build Night 101 is a beginner
  course built to build confidence and shift your mindset. AI and Automatio
 n can feel intimidating at first\, but once you understand the fundamental
 s\, they become powerful\, approachable resources that anyone can use. By 
 the end of the session\, you’ll not only have a stronger understanding o
 f what’s possible\, but also a clearer sense of how to continue explorin
 g and building on your own. Come ready to learn by doing\, ask questions\,
  experiment freely\, and connect with others who are on a similar journey.
  You’ll leave with practical knowledge\, tangible progress\, and a solid
  foundation to start integrating AI and Automation into your work\, your p
 rojects\, and your everyday life. \nJoin us every month for our AI Build N
 ight 101 and become part of our ecosystem. Reserve your spot today!

DESCRIPTION:Join us for our AI Build Night 101! These are beginner-friendl
 y\, hands-on experience designed for exploring new tools\, professionals l
 ooking to streamline their work\, or simply someone curious about what AI 
 can actually do beyond the hype. This session is built for those who have 
 heard the buzz\, maybe experimented with a few tools\, but still feel unsu
 re about how to apply AI and Automation in a meaningful\, practical way. I
 nstead of overwhelming you with technical jargon or abstract concepts\, we
  focus on breaking everything down into clear\, simple ideas you can immed
 iately understand and use. \nThroughout the session\, we take a practical\
 , step-by-step approach to demystifying AI and Automation. You’ll learn 
 what these tools actually are (and aren’t)\, how they fit into real work
 flows\, and where they can create the most impact in your day-to-day work.
  We’ll explore accessible\, no-code and low-code tools that allow you to
  build without needing a technical background\, and we’ll show you how s
 mall automations can lead to significant time savings and increased produc
 tivity. Participants won’t just sit and listen because you’ll be activ
 ely building. Through guided exercises and real-world examples\, you’ll 
 start creating simple automations\, experimenting with AI-powered tools\, 
 and thinking through how these solutions can apply to your own goals. Whet
 her it’s automating repetitive administrative tasks\, organizing and ana
 lyzing information more efficiently\, improving customer interactions\, or
  quickly prototyping a new idea\, you’ll walk away having already taken 
 action. \nBeyond the tools themselves\, this Build Night 101 is a beginner
  course built to build confidence and shift your mindset. AI and Automatio
 n can feel intimidating at first\, but once you understand the fundamental
 s\, they become powerful\, approachable resources that anyone can use. By 
 the end of the session\, you’ll not only have a stronger understanding o
 f what’s possible\, but also a clearer sense of how to continue explorin
 g and building on your own. Come ready to learn by doing\, ask questions\,
  experiment freely\, and connect with others who are on a similar journey.
  You’ll leave with practical knowledge\, tangible progress\, and a solid
  foundation to start integrating AI and Automation into your work\, your p
 rojects\, and your everyday life. \nJoin us every month for our AI Build N
 ight 101 and become part of our ecosystem. Reserve your spot today!
