\"\"<\/p>\n

WHAT: <\/strong>Michael Cook of CITY REPAIR <\/a>from Portland, Oregon will speak on the Magic of Placemaking: the Art of reclaiming urban spaces to create community-oriented places.
\nWHEN:<\/strong> Monday, June 21st \u00a0at 7pm
\nWHERE:<\/strong> Dalhousie School of Architecture (room H19) 5410 Spring Garden Road, Halifax<\/p>\n

Michael will share the story of City Repair’s radical and enchanting beginnings: how a journey into the indigenous cultures of the world sparked the creation of a guerrilla tea house, the transformation of a street intersection into a village commons, and a culture of neighborhood placemakers across the nation.<\/p>\n

City Repair began in Portland, Oregon in 2000 with the idea that localization – of culture, of economy, of decision-making – is a necessary foundation of sustainability. It is an organized group action that educates and inspires communities and individuals to creatively transform the places where they live. City Repair facilitates artistic and ecologically-oriented placemaking through projects that honor the interconnection of human communities and the natural world. The many projects of City Repair have been accomplished by a mostly volunteer staff and thousands of volunteer citizen activists.<\/p>\n

This is a free event presented by HOPE (Hands On Projects Etc.) with support from Arts Engage<\/a> and Dalhousie University.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
