“Sometimes informally referred to as ‘night mayors’ or ‘night czars,’ these roles vary widely from city to city. Some cities appoint or elect nighttime managers within an office of municipal government.<\/p>\n

“Other nighttime liaisons or commissions arise from a business-industry or downtown association context, while others emerge from grassroots or nightlife community organizing efforts.”<\/p>\n

24HourDallas is one of these not-for-profit grassroots groups.<\/p>\n

When it comes to advocacy for the nighttime economy in these 60+ cities, there are not as many non-profit organizations (NPOs) or non-government organizations (NGOs) as there are publicly funded enterprises.<\/p>\n

Unaffiliated, and with no shared mission statement that binds us together, we all see value and opportunities in our cities at night.<\/p>\n
