eXplore Lawrence, along with the Lawrence Chamber, Downtown Lawrence Inc., and the Lawrence Restaurant Association, invites local businesses, organizations, and residents to take the Lawrence Promise. The Lawrence Promise is a commitment to keeping residents, employees, and visitors safe from COVID-19.
