Design Nerd Jam 6.3 – STREET PARK JAM
Category : Public Space, Urban Interventions
Date : May 9, 2012
This jam brought together Julien Thomas (Late Nite Art), CoV’s passionate Parks Board and Engineering staff and -you- to generate ideas for turning some of Vancouver’s streets into park land. In support of Vancouver’s greenest city goals, we focused on how to increase access to nature and consider things like accessibility, history, food production, play, ethnobotany, spatial poetics and more. Using the Green Streets Game which leads us through collaborative role play scenarios, we designed a shared vision for the future of specific communities.
