Community, what does it mean to you?
Join us as we speak with Caitlin Behle. Behle uses creativity for good whether it’s through organizing community events, working with artists and entrepreneurs, or currently as a Social Innovation Specialist at Design Impact. Wherever she finds herself, she embraces community through humor, authenticity, and thoughtfulness to the people she encounters.
Discuss with us what community means for her during this time. What she's been cooking and eating? What she's been witnessing in our city and world, and what she thinks the future holds for creating equitable communities.

Dial-Up coordinated by Colleen O’Connor, inspired from an idea by Katherine Durack: A series of dynamic and participatory community conversations with artists, musicians, entrepreneurs, and others to inspire connection to ones’ neighbors both near and far through shared-experiences.
Referencing past ways of communicating and connecting with larger groups of people through telephone party-lines and internet chat rooms – Dial-Up’s approach is inclusive and plural. It does not discriminate or eliminate participation, and intends to reflect, commiserate, and postulate on what we are currently experiencing, how we are coping, and why our world will never be the same.
This project is made possible through the management of Wave Pool and funded by The Carol Ann and Ralph V. Haile, Jr./U.S. Bank Foundation
