Happy Hour | A Future We Can’t Afford?

April 22, 2016 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

$15

Join young Citymakers in a panel and open discussion in one of Vancouver’s hotly discussed topics for young people: Affordability.

In the face of skyrocketing housing prices and shrinking vacancy rates, there is no shortage of opinions on how affordability is impacting young people. That said, it’s less common to hear opinions directly from young people themselves. A diverse panel of young citymakers will share their views on array of questions ranging from the basics – renting, buying, should I stay or should I go? – to the complex – entitlement, Airbnb and who’s not in the room?

Drawing on their distinct and related city making backgrounds, the panel will additionally address affordability beyond housing, offering interactive discussion relating to mobility, space for leisure and coping strategies.

Join us for an evening of drinks, free-wheeling discussion and open questions and find out what ‘Vancouver’s lifeblood’ really thinks about affordability in Vancouver.

Date: Friday, April 22

Time: Bar opens at 6pm; Discussion begins at 7pm.

Tickets: $15 adults; $11 Students & Seniors; Free for MOV Members.

Tickets: Register Here

Access to Your Future Home included with admission.
