In 2019, City Awake hosted more than 35 events during the five-day citywide Fierce Urgency of Now festival, convening more than 6,000 attendees.
This year, from September 16 – 20, we will again be supporting a series of events that highlight the experiences, challenges, and opportunities for young professionals of color in our city in partnership with organizations and businesses across Greater Boston. Fierce Urgency of Now is a festival that reminds the community that there is no better time than the present to be an agent of change. The future of our city depends on it.
