Carter Ellis: Grace Shows Up in the Form of Neighbors

Happy 2024! In this first episode of the new year, we are so excited to welcome our dear friend Carter Ellis onto the front porch. Carter is the executive director of The Hub Argentine, a hub for neighboring and asset-based community development in the awesome, Argentine neighborhood of Kansas City, Kansas. 

A neighbor-led organization, the Hub is a wonderfully diverse gathering space in the neighborhood, providing resources such as a community garden, community market, and clothing closet - all through the lens of abcd. The truly relational work being done there is so incredible, so we can't wait to share this amazing episode with you all!

Conducted by co-founder Catherine, this interview walks through the history of the Hub, the way their programming matches neighborhood gifts with gaps, and the way that individual neighbors are both mobilized and celebrated. For anyone who's interested in how asset-based work might tangibly look in the context of a neighborhood, or how to curate a more asset-based space, this is an episode you won't want to miss!
