About the event
S2C2 is partnering with Hawthorne Blvd. Business Association and PDX Main Streets to turn 37th Ave south of Hawthorne into a pop-up plaza with games, music, food and family-friendly fun! PARK(ing) Day is a annual open-source world-wide event where citizens, artists and activists collaborate to temporarily transform metered parking spaces into “PARK(ing)” spaces: temporary public places. The project began in 2005 when Rebar, a San Francisco art and design studio, converted a single metered parking space into a temporary public park in downtown San Francisco. Since 2005, PARK(ing) Day has evolved into a global movement. Learn more at: www.myparkingday.org. See images from past events.
