We will work through a community issue from data collection and analysis to a mapped visualization and look at stream storytelling in a holistic way. This workshop will discuss the use of graphics to illustrate and communicate data stories that are both engaging and informative. Individuals with a background in local community organization, government, academia and private business are encouraged to attend. For more information and registration click HERE.
