This Saturday help transform the 700 block of Granville Street using hundreds of super-sized polystyrene building blocks. The blocks were salvaged from the construction of the Port Mann Bridge and ground down for use in new blocks, and will be reused again after the event. Looking to offer to offer new ways to re-imagine public design, the project is a partnership of UBCs School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture, the Vancouver Public Space Network, Maker Faire Vancouver, Spacing Magazine, and the Museum of Vancouver. Threeteams will create giant games, social machines, and art installations. The public is invited to encourage builders and enjoy the interactive landscape between 10am and 6pm July 13. Orientations for those who want to join a build team will be at 10am, 1pm, and 5pm. Register by emailing [email protected].
