Join us in person at the Valentine for the first Controversy/History of the season: “Disease & Disparity.” Local health experts will dive into access to healthcare, covid pandemic updates, and the latest information on monkeypox in the Richmond region.

The 2022-2023 series of Controversy/History celebrates 10 years of BIG community conversations. In this series, the Valentine aims to hold space for Richmonders to engage with topics that are an integral part of everyday life in the city and surrounding areas. We bring in representatives from non-profit and government institutions that keep you aware of not only what’s new, but to examine what’s still broken and discuss ways to improve our quality of life. To celebrate the 10-year anniversary, we will be re-engaging with our most controversial, heavy-hitting conversation topics over the years: health, transportation, housing, education, and public spaces.

This event is free and open to the public. Click here to register.
