Urbanists

Urbanists are MAS members in early-to mid-career who care about the future of New York.

Whether you’re a new or a native New Yorker, your voice and passion for urban literacy is something we at MAS recognize and share. For over ten years, MAS has offered hundreds of individuals, early in their careers, broad exposure to the critical issues of urban planning, design and public space through our Urbanist program. Urbanists engage in dialogue about city-building through intelligent programming, tours of interesting sites around the city, and networking and social events.

We hope you’ll join us.
