Lab: Urban Ecology Experience with Sweet Water Foundation
Immerse yourself in Urban Ecology at Sweet Water Foundation's flagship site, The Commons, which spans 4 contiguous city blocks on Chicago's South Side. You will learn about Sweet Water’s practice of Regenerative Neighborhood Development during a tour of The Commons followed by hands-on activities ranging from farming to carpentry to artmaking. This Lab invites participants to challenge their relationship with the world around them, integrate Sweet Water’s practice of Regenerative Neighborhood Development into their lives, and consider their relationship with the urban environment.
This event venue has limited ADA Accessibility. Wear comfortable clothing, suitable for the lab's activities (jeans, t-shirt, gym shoes etc).
