Kick off your 2018 with good company and interesting conversation. Join us for a cocktail reception and debate screening of "Unresolved: America's Economic Outlook," originally presented by Intelligence Squared US.

The debate screening is optional— we welcome every one to stay, but you are more than welcome to join us for cocktails and conversation!

About the debate

"By most accounts, the American economy is booming — manufacturing is at a 13-year high, unemployment is at a 16-year low, and both the stock market and consumer confidence are soaring. But just what is driving this upturn? And can Americans trust that current economic conditions will hold up in the months ahead? In our season premiere, five esteemed economic thinkers debate the state of the American economy, from tax cuts to trade policy.

Closing in on the Trump administration’s first year, we’ll ask: Is deregulation driving the booming economy? Can the Republican tax bill spur economic growth? And is the stock market too high?"
