Rooted & Rising: The People’s Place 1st Annual Gathering
This year marks one year since The People's Place opened its doors. We've grown into a living ecosystem — fiscally sponsoring projects, training organizers, and building shared space. Tonight, we pause, reflect, and look ahead.

The People's Place, Inc., 101 Pierpont Rd, Waterbury, CT 06705, USA
About the event
This year marks one year since The People’s Place opened its doors. Over the past year, we have grown into a living ecosystem — supporting six fiscally sponsored projects, piloting organizer trainings through our Growth Center, and welcoming a vibrant mix of coworkers, partners, and community into shared space. This gathering is a moment to pause, reflect, and look ahead.
Come through for an evening of art, music, storytelling, and connection as we celebrate what we’ve learned and invite you into what’s ahead.
