Neighbor Spotlight: Alexis Adams-Wynn

Alexis Adams-Wynn, the leader of East Jefferson SOUP, was selected as one of 20 fellows from around the country to represent Detroit in the 8 80 Cities and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation’s 2018 Emerging City Champions Program!

Alexis’s project focuses on the ways in which comedy can serve as a form of healing, civic engagement, and storytelling in neighborhoods. She will be developing comedy writing, improv, and trauma-informed care workshops that will culminate in a community-led comedy show at The Alger in Spring 2019.
