HOST COMMITTEE
The Host Committee for CNU-32 in Cincinnati is made up of energetic urbanists who have a heartfelt passion for the Cincinnati region. We come from several different professions, multiple cities, and two states.
Our Host Committee includes business leaders, real estate developers, media professionals, non-profit leaders, lenders, planners, architects, residents, community advocates, and not one but TWO mayors!
In addition to our Host Committee, we have several Programming Committees for fundraising, legacy projects, tours, publicity & media, special events, program themes, and volunteers. Contact us to get involved!
