The NeighbourMaker Project Assistance Award<\/strong><\/p>\n

Attention\u00a0University Student Artists, Designers, and Experimentalists!<\/p>\n

\n

The Museum of Vancouver loves to connect people. We also like to engage people with ideas about the city. NeighbourMaker takes this love of Vancouver and its people to the streets!<\/p>\n

NeighbourMaker is a combination public program & design challenge that encourages university students to design an intervention or experiment in a public or semi-public space in the city to help build social connectedness.<\/p>\n

University students are encouraged to submit\u00a0their\u00a0plans that make the city more\u00a0creative, connected and neighbourly. We\u2019re excited to support student-led projects that build social connectedness.<\/p>\n

Lets make Neighbours.<\/p>\n
