PARK(ING) DAY

SEPTEMBER 15th, 2009

This Friday parking spaces across the UK will be transformed into miniature urban oases as PARK(ing) Day comes to Britain for the first time. PARK(ing) Day is an annual one-day event that has been growing steadily since its inception in 2005, with over 500 PARK installations created in over 100 cities worldwide in 2008.

More than 70% of outdoor city space is dedicated to cars. PARK(ing) Day aims to reclaim some of this space by encouraging artists, eco-activists and members of the public to turn parking spaces into temporary, miniature parks.
