MKM's Fishbowl with Dan Ross (New Date!)

We're thrilled to welcome Dan Ross, President & CEO of Arts United to the Fishbowl!

What's a Fishbowl?

A few times a year, MKM architecture + design hosts a Fishbowl. It's an afternoon event where we invite interesting people from the community to reflect on their careers, share their work, and discuss big ideas. Topics can range from artificial intelligence to social justice and many things in between. The Fishbowl offers an intimate venue for discussing, sharing, and learning about innovations in community health and well-being.

**New Date: September 25th, 2025**

Doors open at 3:15 PM for light refreshments and networking | Discussion at 3:45 PM
