To honor and celebrate Black History Month, OLIN sponsored the 3rd annual Black History Month Symposium hosted by the Black Landscape Architects Network (BlackLAN), an organization that supports Black landscape architecture students and professionals.
The event featured keynote speakers Divine Ndemeye, the founder of Remesha Design, and Maci Nelson, the creator, and host of The Landscape Nerd podcast, as they shared their knowledge, experiences, and perspectives on race, landscape, and media. The symposium acted as an interactive panel discussion and Q&A session, giving attendees the opportunity to engage with the speakers and learn more about the topics they presented.
The proceeds from the event are going to support BlackLAN's scholarship efforts.
