We invite you to join us for Bloustein Studio Day, an opportunity to engage with and reflect on planning practice as Bloustein students present real-world work they have been developing all semester in partnership with government agencies, nonprofits, and community organizations across New Jersey.
This year’s seven studio presentations span some of today’s most pressing planning challenges from Complete Streets and active transportation in Linwood, to affordable housing and public health, to climate resilience and municipal land use planning. Our graduate students have worked with clients including Hudson County’s Division of Planning, the NJ Bike and Walk Coalition, the NJ Hospital Association, and the Montclair Center BID, among others.
The event will also feature an expert panel of distinguished planning practitioners and Bloustein alumni including Christiana Foglio, DC’84, MCRP ’86 (Community Investment Strategies), Eric Enderlin, MCRP ’98 (NYC Housing Development Corporation), Leigh Ann Von Hagen ’93 (Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center), and Pallavi Shinde MCRP ’12 (Director of Planning and Zoning, City of Newark).
See the full agenda, panelist bios, and descriptions about each studio here.
Bloustein Studio Day offers an inspiring look at the next generation of planners putting their skills to work. Please see the attached flyer with agenda, descriptions of each studio, and more information about the panelists. We hope to see you there!
