An Evening with Van Jones

YBCA Fundraisers




The Forum: Conversations at YBCA is a new quarterly series of moderated conversations with artists, activists, and thought-leaders.

For our second program, YBCA is pleased to welcome Van Jones, the globally recognized and award-winning pioneer in human rights and the clean energy economy. Jones worked as the green jobs advisor to the Obama administration in 2009, during which time he helped run the inter-agency process that oversaw $80 billion in green recovery spending. He will be joined on stage by award-winning, nationally-known journalist Farai Chideya, whose reporting has been featured in Newsweek, The New York Times and on National Public Radio. More details »
