Placemaking Week 2024

PLEASE NOTE: You selected your Mobile Workshop when you registered for the conference. You cannot change your Mobile Workshop, or select one here on Sched. Specific information and instructions will be emailed in May to those signed up for each workshop.

The Peale is Baltimore’s Community Museum, housed in the oldest museum building in the United States. At this workshop, the museum’s partner Quatrefoil will share how they convened local area museums, community organizations, artists, and other creators to begin to develop a “Street Museum,” connecting cultural experiences in public spaces in order to bring visitors to Baltimore’s attractions and neighborhoods. They’ll share their learnings and tips on how other organizations can forge alliances and partnerships with neighborhood groups and culture keepers of all sorts, while providing a charette-like experience to gain insight from participants.
