PARK(ing) Day is a global event that is transforming 'car parks' into 'people parks' on 19 September 2008. It’s based on the idea that feeding a parking meter is like “renting” a space. But instead of parking car, why not park something better! It started in San Francisco to raise awareness about the need for urban green space. PARK(ing) Day is all about 1) Calling attention to the importance of urban public spaces 2) Rethinking the way we use our streets 3) Creating diverse conversations about how we make sustainable cities. It now happens in 50 cities worldwide and we are bringing it to Brisbane! PARKs are happening in various suburbs. We invite you to join some of Brisbane's most creative and passionate people and create a PARK(ing) space www.parkingday.org (global event) www.brisbaneparkingday.blogspot.com (Brisbane)
