This exhibition celebrates NeighborSpace (a non-profit land trust) and its role in cultivating over 115 community managed green spaces in neighborhoods throughout Chicago. NeighborSpace shoulders the responsibilities of property ownership — such as providing basic insurance, access to water, and links to support networks — so that community groups can focus on gardening. Visitors will learn about exemplary projects and their intersection with architecture and design.
