Art of City Building - 2025

Join us for the 9th Art of City Building (AoCB) conference on September 12-13, 2025 in Halifax and Dartmouth Nova Scotia, as we explore "New Perspectives" in urban innovation and design.

This grassroots conference brings together local residents, national experts, and international thought leaders for transformative conversations about the future of our cities.

Through four dynamic themes:

➡️ Outliers (amplifying rarely heard voices)
➡️ Advanced Technology (how innovation transforms urban spaces)
➡️ Wellness by Design (prioritizing mental health in city planning)
➡️ And, Reimagining Climate Resilience (equitable solutions for climate challenges).

We'll dive deep into inclusive, forward-thinking approaches to city building.

🗓️ Friday, September 12 will feature keynote presentations, engaging panel discussions, and opportunities for meaningful community dialogue in Paul O'Regan Hall at Halifax Central Library.

🗓️ Saturday, September 13 will include immersive and interactive local conversations and networking in Dartmouth.
