| Creative placemaking is a term that describes the practice of using the arts as a tool for community development. This book is intended to serve as an introduction to creative placemaking for those interested in using the practice to create more and better parks in their community. It will answer two important questions through lessons and case studies: first, “What is creative placemaking?” and second, “How does creative placemaking make for better parks?” It tells the story of the natural connection among culture, public space, and community. The Field Guide for Creative Placemaking and Parks was produced by The Trust for Public Land and the City Parks Alliance; it was funded in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts. |
