$2000 Placemaking Grants

BIG SURPRISE! In an effort to activate and foster greater interaction within our neighborhoods, we will award three eligible neighborhood areas a $2000 grant. A city staff team will work with neighborhood residents to identify, design, and plan a project in a city park.  You (and hopefully many of your neighbors) will sign-up your neighborhood upon arrival.

 

40+ Exhibits.  Loads of useful information important to your neighborhoods will be on hand.  Brag about your neighborhood!  We have exhibit tables reserved to display neighborhood related activities, projects, and publications.  Bring copies to share with others.
