FIELDHOUSE ACTIVATION
Come explore activities at fieldhouses located in our parks!
Vancouver Park Board’s Fieldhouse Activation Program transformed former care-takers’ suites in parks or underused facilities across Vancouver into active spaces for community engaged creative practices.
In each cycle artist collectives, local food, and environmental groups are given access to these spaces in exchange for engaging neighbours, colleagues, and curious visitors in imaginative, collaborative work in parks. This project supports artists who create work in the heart of communities, developing community-based projects that engage with neighbourhoods and surrounding parks, and connect with other artists to grow this form of participatory arts.
These inspiring projects lead communities into deeper conversations about living in the urban environment.
