CONTRACTS + COMMISSIONS
Centre for City Ecology
[2013-2014]
An 18 month tenure that saw the Centre for City Ecology deliver on several key priorities and programming objectives; 7 lectures, 3 exhibits, 5 events and 3 workshops and the wrap up of TENT and the Community Planning Board Working Group Pilot projects in the Scarborough neighbourhood of Kingston-Galloway Orton Park. We worked to consolidate the CCEs mandate by focusing on core programming; prioritizing lectures and organizing high profile events; YIMBY, the exhibit How does your Neighbourhood Grow and the interactive density model with the Agents of Urban Change and the 10 No Brainers to Make Toronto More Awesome campaign.
