Successful public spaces are shaped by the policies and practices of our local governments, companies, and nonprofits. When a place needs more than just public art and placemaking to succeed it’s time for civic engagement and community planning. Graham Projects works with diverse stakeholders to affect change at the block, neighborhood, and city level. Public artist Graham Coreil-Allen and his team support local leaders on addressing the strengths and needs of communities through sensitive engagement and creative communications. Be it through listening sessions, community walks, storytelling campaigns, or public events, we work to ensure that those in power are serving the people and their places. When developing community master plans we often work in collaboration with partner firms specializing in public policy, land use, urban planning, landscape architecture, and transportation engineering.
