Reimagine your winter landscapes in this webinar on winter placemaking for public spaces. We’ll explore fun, innovative strategies in enhancing community engagement and experience during the chilliest months of the year. Draw inspiration from cities that are transforming their public areas into vibrant, welcoming environments with outdoor activities, social gatherings, and seasonal celebrations—despite the cold! Our expert panel will share insights on the unique challenges and opportunities that winter brings and highlight case studies of communities that have turned their public spaces into lively wintry hubs.
