Description
Trade&Row Corp. (Trade&Row) was founded by Karin Pleasant and Aldo Puicon in March 2008 to create a forum for community members to discuss current events that affect people on a local, regional, national and/or international level. We both have an interest in community service and want to encourage social activism. By using art, film, workshops and/or panel discussions, Karin and Aldo hope to (1) create an atmosphere that removes the complexity from issues and makes people feel comfortable to express themselves, and (2) generate dialog among audience members that leads to ideas for solutions whereby people realize their own potential and role in solving social problems. Regardless of what issues are discussed, Trade&Row is first and foremost a community organization.
