What happens after the interventionist stage of urban engagement? This panel brings together architects, curators, and cultural instigators who explore a wide range of scales of design and production from the tactical to the strategic to investigate the promise and pitfalls of bottom-up design. Speakers will address the wide-scale use of these kinds of practices in activating the urban realm and community building, the lifespan of temporary projects, and, importantly, the relationship these projects have to policy and government.

Panelists include: Stephen Zacks, Flint Public Art Project; Douglas Burnham, envelope a+d; and Anne Guiney, Institute for Urban Design
