PLAY ·2023 Grants ChallengeGreen Your Neighborhood!
Everyone needs safe green space where they can relax and renew. Kid City's Breezeway, designed by first-generation students, includes a native garden, outdoor furniture, mosaics, and a vibrant mural. This project builds a virtual and real-life learning tool using the Breezeway model as a living laboratory to transform unused public spaces into green community hubs. We will show how community members can drive project conception, design, and build. Green space should not be a luxury. Let's give young people the tools to green their neighborhood!
