​Decompression space available. Free tea/coffee/snacks. 

Featuring: a variety of ways to engage! 

1. Story - Mapping:
Plot your experiences onto city maps. Where did you slip and fall? Where were you struck by a vehicle? Where do you feel stress and fear? What routes can you count on being safe? Using stickers of different shapes or textures, participants will help visualize problem zones and well cared for areas. We will digitize this data - you can enjoy a tactile, family-friendly, more accessible experience!
​
2. Priorities and Policies Roundtables:
Take part in a facilitated discussion on a one-page position paper and the results of a recent Happy City survey on the issue. Consider several priority and policy suggestions as a group. Each table with contribute 2-3 recommendations for a dot-mocracy exercise, which everyone can partake in at the end. These two stations will be rotational.

3. Audio-visual Storytelling:
The third station will be ongoing. Participants will be invited to sign up at the beginning of the event. There will be an interviewer, audiographers, and videographers present for anyone who wants to talk about their experiences or tell their story through audio or video. Folks are also welcome to prepare and deliver a monologue through audio or video. There will also be a photographer and placards for taking headshots with statements about Pedestrian Safety.
