Mon, November 4, 2013 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM See description. FREE. URBANATOMY- An evening of Art and Urban Planning in Rutland!
The public is invited to attend URBANATOMY, a Pecha Kucha Presentation, to be held on Monday, November 4 at 7 – 9 PM at the Rutland Centennial Hall, 180 Rutland Road N, Kelowna BC.
UBC Creative Studies students team up with a UBC history class studying urban planning to explore how urban places are created and experienced. While the History class presents elements of urban design, creative writing and visual arts students will unveil a series of project proposals that provide a quirky, creative vision of Rutland. The proposals are part of a new initiative to create Dig Your Neighbourhood: Rutland—a package of art for newcomers to the neighbourhood to be delivered by the Welcome Wagon Ltd.
Pecha Kucha nights are fun events where teams deliver ideas, images, plans and thoughts using 20 slides for 20 seconds each.
Everyone is welcome, admission is free, and light refreshments will be provided. We invite Rutland residents to give feedback to the students about their proposals and enjoy a lively night out.
Sponsored by The Rutland Park Society, The Department of Creative Studies, The Eco Art Incubator, and the Urban Studies program at UBC.
