We invite you to come to our Backyard BBQ! Are you looking for personalized your backyard? visit <a href=\"https:\/\/actonadu.com\/\">here<\/a> and discover the best experts.<\/p>\n<p>Laneways take up a significant amount of land in Vancouver, and yet only a handful of these spaces are welcoming for people. Recently, the City has taken an interest in turning laneways into places for people, most notably with Alley Oop, a richly coloured lane off Granville Street. But with hundreds of kilometers of laneways in Vancouver alone, much more can be done.<\/p>\n<p>This summer the Vancouver Public Space Network, with a grant from VIVA Vancouver is transforming two laneways (for one day each) into fun and friendly spaces using upcycled furniture from <a href=\"https:\/\/ivyandwilde.com\/\">Ivy and Wilde<\/a>, flea market finds, and pallets. After having hosted an outrageously successful event in East Van, Gastown is the second neighbourhood up! Join us for a casual <em>Backyard BBQ<\/em> \u2013 a laneway activation taking place in the diagonal alleyway connecting Cambie and Cordova Streets on <strong>Saturday, August 26th<\/strong>. This activation will use some creatively upcycled materials to turn an urban space into the suburban dream.
