On September 16, I organized PARK(ing) Day in Santa Rosa. Greenbelt Alliance teamed up with the Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition and the Share Exchange to transform metered parking spots into temporary parks for people. The

a great article summarizing the event. The San Francisco based artist group
Rebar started PARK(ing) Day in 2005 as a way to bring attention to our car-centered culture and the alternative ways we could choose to use space. Check out this
video my colleagues made to celebrate grassroots placemaking.
I recently took on a graphic design project for Ragged Wing Ensemble a theater company based in the East Bay. This fall they are putting on a series of free performances at a local park. The Play is called Innana's Decent and it follows various mythological characters as they explore the underworld. Different scenes take place throughout the park. I really enjoy the concept because it combines my interest in expression, story telling, and spacial relationships. Plus, I had the opportunity to draw a map that charts out the activities. Below you'll see the front and back of the program for the play.
