PARK(ing) Day is an international annual event in which activists and citizens transform metered parking spaces into temporary public parks and other social spaces. PARK(ing) Day was invented in 2005 by Rebar, a San Francisco-based art and design studio, to encourage people to rethink the way streets are used. Since then, PARK(ing) Day has grown into an international event taking place in over 160 cities on 6 continents.
This year, Sacramento's creative community will transform 20th Street into a series of temporary parklets that encourage ‘sustainability’ in the urban environment. By grouping its efforts together, the ASLA California Sierra Chapter will continue to showcase a broad vision of how to creatively re-imagine Sacramento’s streets. The group will also expose the general public to what parklets are and explore the possibility of creating more permanent parklets.
