[PCA] CONFERENCE: Native Plants and the Future of Public Spaces Symposium; Apr 9; 1pm ET (Virtual)

[Park, Margaret E]

Date/location: Friday, April 9, 2021; 1-4pm ET (Virtual)
What will you learn?
The events of 2020 altered the way we gather and therefore, the ways we design and use spaces. What does this mean for the future of outdoor public spaces like parks and gardens, and what are the potential roles of native plants in these new scenarios? Join Native Plant Trust for a virtual symposium in which prominent landscape and horticulture professionals explore these pressing questions through a keynote, interactive workshop and panel discussion.

Speakers:

  *   Anita Berrizbeitia, Professor and Chair of Landscape Architecture at Harvard University, will present the keynote on understanding and expanding the scholarship about public landscapes.
  *   Karyn Williams, Director of Programs at Design Trust for Public Space, will lead a workshop on stakeholder engagement in the landscape design process.
  *   Marielle Anzelone, creator of NYC Wildflower Week and PopUP Forest: Times Square, is a botanist and urban ecologist.
  *   Carolina Lukac, Garden Education Manager, Vermont Community Garden Network, empowers individuals to cultivate productive, edible landscapes to provide for themselves and for their communities.
  *   Veronica Tyson-Strait, landscape architect, garden designer, horticulturist, educator, and fine artist, was born in the Caribbean and is currently based in New York City.
