The Obstacle Course

What is this program all about?

What does the design of our city say about what we value as a community?
Who makes the decisions about how our city is planned?
What the hell does an Obstacle Course have to do with these questions?!

Come find out!
Hint: Oftentimes barriers/obstacles/obstructions are the greatest springboards to imagination—and oftentimes building a vibrant city consists of limitations of scope/budget/perspectives/time/etc…

Cities are alive with people and change and innovation and hardship and the process of figuring out who gets what, when, and how is a great privilege and responsibility for all citizens.
Tonight, you’ll come and take part in our “Obstacle Course”** as individuals or in a team, and you’ll get a hands-on look at what goes into the design and execution of our city plan.

We PROMISE, this will be interactive and fun even though we’ll be exploring city planning, zoning, and other boring sounding things that really affect our lives.

** (Since it’s a Civic Obstacle Course and we want everyone to participate, this course is more mental than physical and will be accessible for all)
