Amani Neighborhood Event

MKE United, an initiative of Greater Milwaukee Committee, will host a placemaking community event with partners of Amani United and the Dominican Center. The event will offer a platform for residents to express themselves on social issues, provide access and connection to resource providers and similar mission-driven organizations, and the opportunity to design a communal art piece.

All spaces of Moody Park will be activated to uplift the community by spreading positivity. This is a free and open to the public event.

You can expect the following at this event:

• Moderated panel discussion offering Amani residents a platform to share their perspective on critical social issues, identify ways to bring awareness and educate, and help with building solutions.

• Visit resource providers to learn more about holistic services from home ownership, mental health awareness, small business entrepreneurship, violence prevention and more.

• Each attendee will have an opportunity to create an art inspired piece to envision what the future looks like for the Amani community.

• Enjoy food vendors and live entertainment while connecting with other community members.

This event is supported by MKE United’s Community Leaders Committee, a collective partnership of resident leaders and nonprofit organizers representing the adjacent neighborhoods surrounding Downtown Milwaukee.
