Friday, November 1, 10:30 am – 2:30 pm – Navigating Public Design

Community spaces are exciting projects to envision and realize. In this Ecological Landscape Alliance half-day workshop, learn a process to bring stakeholders together to collaborate in creating outdoor spaces of meaning and beauty. Understand how to use your creative ideas to build partnerships, fundraise, overcome obstacles, and draw visitors to your public landscape. We will emphasize the creation of spaces that are both ecologically and operationally sustainable. The session takes place at Garden in the Woods in Framingham on November 1 from 10:30 – 2:30. ELA members $60, nonmembers $71. Landscape designer Staci Jasin will lead the class. Register at www.ecolandscaping.org
