Summary
How can you make art, hold events and unite communities during a pandemic AND get funding for it? You just do it. Hannah Berry, creative director and owner of Lions & Rabbits and the force behind Creston. After Dark, chats with us about public art, economic development, placemaking and how to engage neighbors to create better communities. Forced to reconfigure their goals for 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, she shares her philosophy that "creative placemaking equals creative problem solving," and to move forward, "you make a plan and you figure it out." She'll talk about murals, parties and how the creative community can spark a hyper-local renaissance. Involved in Grand Rapids, Michigan's downtown development, Hannah has been a pivotal player in the vision and execution of the Rad Women project, a public art and walking tour, in addition to spearheading the After Dark series of neighborhood improvement projects and events slated to launch later this year.
