Looking for a parking place will be tougher on Friday, when artists will be competing with the public for space. It’s earth restored on the meter. Leaving the car at home will offer opportunities to hang on out in a great variety of temporary pocket parks.
Origins here. Participants in Seattle include Crawl Space and the Seattle Art Museum, which is going all out:
Parking spaces near the Seattle Art Museum (SAM), on University Street
between First and Second Avenues, will be transformed into a temporary “park” replete with sod, art activities and
exhibitions, performances and even a chance to test drive the “Walk and Roll” low-impact vehicle, on national
PARK(ing) Day, Friday, Sept. 18, from 10 am-2 pm.
Game critic alert: Jen Graves tried out Peter Reiquam’s Walk and Roll last month at aLIVe. (Photo credit and story here.)
