Build Your City
A community bench building workshop with Benches 4 Bus Stops and MakerSpace Charlotte where you can make tangible change happen.
Come out to learn more, talk about ways to get involved, and enjoy the company of other people who want to build our city up together!
If you want to be involved in hands on work at the event, please fill out the volunteer form at https://b4bs.org/join so we can plan accordingly. Be sure to wear clothes that you don't mind getting paint on.
This is a family-friendly all-ages event; however, some activities may have age, ability, and training requirements. Please reach out to us at BenchesForBusStops@gmail.com if you have questions or concerns about this.
This is an inclusive event where we want everyone to feel safe, and we have the following boundaries:
-
We require that all participants wear masks as well as activity-appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to help keep everyone safe. We will have N95 masks and other PPE available for free, but you are welcome to bring your own.
-
Anti-social/anti-inclusive speech or behavior will result in corrective action by event organizers up to and including expulsion from the event.
Additionally, we acknowledge that the Charlotte Metro area stands on the stolen lands of the Mánu: Yį Įsuwą, Cheraw, and Sugaree peoples.
Water and electrolyte drinks will be available for free.
We will send more information to those signed up for hands on work closer to the event date to assign duties.
Check back soon for additional info including accessibility information, food availability, and more!
