Can we do better? I'd hope so! But there positives here that could be built on? 1) It's providing space for play on the doorstep 2) There are 'eyes on' from balconies and footpaths 3) There are 'invitations to stay' (seating) as well as an invitation to play. Of course each of these things could (and should) be stronger, but what could we start with whats strong, how can we make the most of these relative strengths to deliver a network of real, valuable public space on people's doorsteps? Anything else people can see?

We're looking for great examples of cultural projects around the world that have used a 'meanwhile use' or festival-based approach to test out ideas and establish a cultural destination for the longer term. Do you know of... * Any art museums that have started out as festivals? * Any foundations that have emerged from a programme-driven model? * Any destinations that had a strong participatory or co-design model? They can be large or small. A couple that spring to mind as inspiration include Derby's Museum of Making, National Museums Liverpool Sunrise to Sunset festival, and Nantes as a city-wide approach to festivals that established longer term destinations... Ideas and examples welcome! Petra Marko Carl Turner Juliette Rizzi Aki Carpenter Allison Louis Walker Catherine Botibol Sam O.

Often, these are hidden jewels that add to not only rural settings but major cities where their presence shines and preserves unique perspectives. The failure to address these inherent characteristics of small museums, may often result in tragic outcomes: https://lnkd.in/gEv2zW67

🦕 According to data from YouGov Profiles, a majority of Americans (81%) acknowledge that museums can provide an enjoyable experience.
