We want to fill downtown Burien with unique and interesting spaces for building community. We’ve been working for years to clean up the alley behind Burien Press and turn it in to a space to host art and community events. Now we want to convert a previously wasted space behind our coffee shop into a beautiful and welcoming space that bumps up against the alley.
We would love to work with people who want to make Burien more awesome by creating a new garden space, a new venue and want to support the arts and the revitalization of wasted spaces in our community.
Awesome Projects
We're putting together a project grab bag.
We're all of us talented and motivated folks, but coming up with an enticing 3-week project with a group of strangers in just an hour or two might still be a tall order. So there'll be a grab bag of projects for teams to choose from/be inspired by in case creating one from scratch isn't immediately obvious.
What kind of projects? Try a few of these sample ideas on for size:
