Scenario

When community organizations face displacement and identity questions

Our community arts center has been the heart of this neighborhood for forty years and now the city wants to develop the block, so our board has to decide whether to fight and probably lose everything, or take their buyout offer and try to rebuild somewhere else. Some of us think the place itself is sacred, others think the programs are what matter.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group of people who've stewarded a community institution are forced to choose between place and mission when both feel essential to their legacy.
