Get your insurance, hire an architect, build back stick-by-stick — a standard process that has worked for only a percentage of Altadenans affected by the Eaton Fire. 

This roundtable discussion is centered on rethinking how and what to build — from prefab systems to standalone ADUs to material health and embodied carbon.

ALT:adena is a three-part public event series shining a light on those rethinking their pathway home after the Eaton Fire — and the creativity and expertise making it possible.

Stepping up in scale each week, we move from the home, to the land, to the town. Each gathering will convene fire survivors, builders, organizers, and technical experts united by a shared curiosity, whether by choice or lived necessity.
