Taking Chicago a Park
Taking Chicago a Park
A series of brochures intending to introduce local Chicago parks and encourage visitors to interact and immerse themselves in the space.
This project highlights Chicago parks in a way that promotes active use of the space. Discovery and involvement are the key goals of these brochures informing readers about ways to use the space, volunteer, and learn more about nature. The next step of viewing the brochures should be to visit the parks. This may entail an activity as simple as walking, or as complex as attending a seasonal forest maintenance session. Chicagoans should be able to enjoy the green spaces around them and want to preserve and care for them. At the same time, they should feel more confident with their community knowledge and understand what is around them. Above all, it should promote healthy fun and a door to new hobbies.
