Highlights
PARK(ing) Day Indrachowk
September 24, 2022
One tiny tactical intervention can become a model for Reclaiming Streets for People!
Within Park(ing) Day, parking spots are transformed into temporary public places forming the setting for social life through creative use of the space traditionally meant for vehicles.
​
We are activating a parking space in Indrachowk as a site for creative experimentation, cultural expression, and social interaction, accessible to all.
Come join us in our effort to collectively re-envision our streetscapes.
