  • 1 hour 30 minutes

Park Imaginaries

Learn about the story on the other side of the tracks and the design process behind the park and green spaces within Spring District that weaves historical usage and intermingled neighborhood and corporate campus. Using drawing as a methodology to absorb a place, we will locate moments of interest that tell the social, environmental, and material story of the park. Learn about how landscape architects approach drawing and check out some of the original drawings that lead to the park.

Drawing Herd is an observational workshop series hosted by Coco Allred. Taking place in downtown Seattle and parks across King County, the project aims to give participants new ways to cultivate attention with particular emphasis on the bioregion and historical context of each site. Each class is co-taught with special guests whose expertise ranges from parkour tricking to choreography to atmospheric science.

All classes are free and supplies are provided!

The 2024 series is funded by the Downtown Seattle Association, the City of Bellevue, and the City of Sammamish.
