BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this very important and most needed gathering is to inform the community through a panel discussion about preserving the Victoria Theater for the benefit of the Harlem Community. HVRG has commitment letters for funds to develop the project. This will be the first time the Harlem Community has had a chance to be a part of a project of this magnitude ($100 Million).
The agenda will provide information on the Stimulus Package, economic development, tourism, education, culture, jobs (approximately 500 living wage positions) and training.
