Event Details

Explore how artists can take advantage of opportunities to develop work that engages with how cities work today. Current urban planning trends are about creating 20-minute neighbourhoods, or 20-minute cities, where residents can access things such as shopping, business services, education, community facilities, recreational and sporting resources, and some jobs within a 20-minute public transport trip, bike ride or walk from home. In this webinar, Jordin will share her experience with place-making for 20-minute cities, public art projects, and her research into multidisciplinary and cross-organisation collaboration.
