Call to Artists


Artists, Architects, Urban Planners, Gardeners, Designers...

If you live in an urban area and desire a place to relax, smell flowers, watch birds or mingle with nature, we ask that you respond to The Great Park Project with texts, drawings, audio, photos, or actions. Your work will become part of an ongoing project, exhibition, book, and a much needed discourse about human activity within the natural environment.

We are seeking contribtutions. Please see instructions below to submit works.

The website will continue to evolve and serve as a resource for the project and public. [see Field Guide Introdution and Proposals for more info]
