Circostrada’s New Guide on Outdoor Arts is Available Now
The Circostrada network has recently released its latest resource, “The Role of Outdoor Arts in Creative Placemaking: A Step-By-Step Guide to Transforming Communities and Spaces.” This comprehensive guide aims to inspire and support creatives, policymakers, and community leaders in using artistic interventions to reshape public spaces and foster community engagement.
The guide includes practical tips, in-depth case studies, and expert insights from professionals across Europe. It highlights the potential of outdoor arts to not only enhance public spaces but also contribute to sustainable urban and rural development. Whether you’re familiar with “placemaking” or entirely new to the concept, this guide offers fresh perspectives and actionable steps for utilizing the power of the arts in shaping communities.
Authored by cultural experts Ariane Bieou and Chrissie Faniadis, the toolkit draws from their extensive experience in European cultural projects and includes case studies from cities such as Alès, France, and Elefsina, Greece. Both authors bring valuable expertise in arts and cultural policy, with backgrounds in urbanism, architecture, and EU cultural development.
Through their work, Circostrada aims to demonstrate how the arts can act as a catalyst for placemaking, using creativity to transform physical spaces while building a sense of community. With its wide array of case studies, resources, and insights, this toolkit is an essential resource for anyone involved in cultural programming, urban planning, or community development.
