People ask ‘what do you do?’ – I guess it’s not always obvious from my posts. ?
Last year, I got the wonderful invite to assist with a conversation about Creative Placemaking, joining some of the leaders in this field of art and community practice. And then I got to turn it into an article for Rice University’s Design magazine, CITE .
It’s a great explainer. Read here: http://bit.ly/CPCite
Check out the rest of the magazine too, the whole issue is dedicated to creative placemaking.
With thanks to Jamie Bennett, Marie Rodriguez, Ernesto David Alfaro Bastidas, and Raj Mankad.
Brava, Margy Waller! You are a comforting, bright light in these uncertain times we find ourselves.
