OVERVIEW:

Click an image below to learn about three special projects I produced with ArtPlace America — the Book, the Exhibition, and the Summit — along with Vital Little Plans, the artist collective and giving circle I founded with several friends.

ArtPlace Book
The book chronicles the 10 years of ArtPlace America, telling the story of a public-private partnership established to advance equitable, creative, and human-centric community development. Learn more.

ArtPlace Exhibition
The exhibition highlights 10 creative placemaking projects from across the country, each supported by ArtPlace, each addressing a community need, and each working within a traditional community planning and development sector. Learn more.

ArtPlace Summit
The summit gathered a community of colleagues each year from the field of creative placemaking, connecting practitioners, researchers, funders, and policymakers. Learn more.

Vital Little Plans
VLP is an artist collective and giving circle that supports equitable, creative, and vital plans that are arts-driven and community-led for neighborhoods and places. Learn more.
