VBC 10: Introduction to Placemaking
Posted January 8, 2010
Village Building Converge (VBC) 10 is coming. VBC is a 10 day event with workshops and speakers on community and natural building. Participants and volunteers will be working on projects all over the city, creating public gathering spaces.
These ‘intersection repair’ projects are sprinkled all over the city. At first, they were most concentrated in the inner SE Portland neighborhoods- Sellwood, Belmont, Hawthorne, Buckman, etc…But over the years that have started popping up East of Mt. Tabor, in NE Portland- Alberta (King neighborhood), St Johns, and even on the westside of town.
VBC 10 is May 28th thru June 6th, 2010. Visit The City Repair Project for more info
