In honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy, Bronson is partnering with The Village Network of Battle Creek to host a community-led dialogue focused on the future of Battle Creek and our shared responsibility in shaping it. This is more than a one-time conversation—it marks the start of an ongoing dialogue and a collective commitment to our future. Attendees will help shape future sessions and carry insights back to their organizations and neighborhoods.
