National PARK(ing) Day 2010 is Friday, September 17th!
PARK(ing) Day is an annual, one-day, global event where artists, activists, and citizens collaborate to temporarily transform metered parking spots into “PARK(ing)” spaces: temporary public parks.
Anyone can participate in PARK(ing) Day, though it is strictly a non-commercial project, intended to promote creativity, civic engagement, critical thinking, unscripted social interactions, generosity and play.
Ready to get started? Read our step-by-step guide to get the ball rolling and then check out the official PARK(ing) Day website for more information.
A few people have noted there are no spaces on the map yet. Well… that’s because PARK(ing) Day depends on YOU, the general public, to get engaged and create the spaces. Make PARK(ing) Day all it can be and participate! Click the link to learn more about how to get involved.
