“We believe that so much of what’s gone right in Chattanooga is because of the deliberate thought that goes into our built environment. Ensuring that this tradition of good urban design and planning remains strong is what City Celebration is all about.”
-Eric Myers, Executive Director
We are grateful that Johanna Heywood, Dan Reuter, and Heidi Hefferlin were able to speak at the event and share their
commitment to urban design and the mission of the Chattanooga Design Studio. Many thanks to Ray Bassett, host and producer
of WUTC-FM’s “Scenic Roots,” who joined Executive Director Eric Myers onstage to discuss the Studio’s vision:
To inspire people-centered urban design that creates joyful, thriving communities for all Chattanoogans.
Thank you to so many in our community who supported City Celebration 2023. Because of your support, we are able to inspire
and engage the community, catalyze investment, and utilize education to elevate an understanding of urban design and place.
Our gratitude to the fundraising committee: Heidi Hefferlin, Johanna Heywood, Jim Williamson, and Rick Wood
