"... It's also about lifting people's heads up from their phones and opening their eyes and ears to the physical space around them. It's about giving folks that quick fix, which slows down their pace, deletes their destination, and brings them into the moment." (Mark Sandusky) The public space is often used by performers who represent different art forms, such as music, acting, singing, mimicking, puppets, acrobatics, and the broader range of busking. Studies have shown that creative people add to the city's vibrancy, a sense of belonging, community engagement, and well-being. Culture and Creativity in Public space boosts the city's international recognition and changes the city's identity and spirit, providing another layer of experiencing public space for visitors and tourists. However, it is complicated to quantify and put a number to the contribution of the creative people performing in public spaces. Still, on the other hand, it is known that it has a behavioural effect on how we experience the city by increasing the dwell time, consumed food and beverage, or ad hoc spending in street retail. "Busking epitomises the principle that people are free to do things in the public realm unless expressly forbidden. It reminds us that we are free to interact with each other, creating an unexpected, informal culture which makes [any city] feel so vibrant."

In a world of constant chaos, a little positivity goes a long way. Feeding my soul by feeding the souls of others.
Today's Positive Thought - May's Mosaic How does the beautiful variety of colors in May teach us about diversity? This Is The Thing: May is the month when everything bursts with colors. It's like a festival with vivid blooms in our gardens and a kaleidoscope of hues that mark cultural festivals worldwide. This vibrant display is a metaphor for the beauty and vitality that diversity adds to our communities and lives. Every color in a garden contributes its unique charm, just like every cultural, ethnic, and individual difference enriches our collective human experience, making the world a more dynamic and inclusive place. #DiversityAndInclusion Having a positive attitude towards diversity means appreciating the different shades of human experience and the various perspectives each brings. By celebrating these differences, we not only enhance our lives but also contribute to a culture of inclusivity and respect. A positive approach towards diversity can help bridge gaps between communities, encourage dialogue, and promote a deeper understanding among people with different backgrounds and experiences. Moreover, it encourages us to look at challenges as opportunities to learn and grow together, building resilience and strength through shared experiences. #PositiveVibes The message from May's colors is clear: diversity is not just about acknowledging or tolerating differences but wholeheartedly embracing and celebrating them. This approach fosters innovation, creativity, and empathy, allowing us to thrive in a globally connected world. By maintaining a positive outlook on the diverse world around us, we not only build better relationships but also pave the way for a brighter, more inclusive future. The message is simple yet profound—diversity, like the spectrum of colors in May, brings joy and beauty to our lives, and embracing it with positivity is key to enhancing our shared human experience. #CulturalCelebration Remember to take care of yourself, stay healthy, and have an awesome Thursday!

Hey Karen, guess what? Our home called – it wants its space back! 🏡 Join us on a hilarious journey of decluttering our home and embracing minimalism. In this video, 'Transforming Our Home: Decluttering Into Minimalism Together!' we tackle the chaos, one cluttered corner at a time. Watch as we discover forgotten treasures (like that third garlic press we definitely don't need) and make tough decisions about which of the 27 coffee mugs spark joy. Spoiler: it’s not all of them. Prepare to laugh, maybe cry (over the garlic press), and get inspired to create a space that’s less about stuff and more about us. As we dive into the world of minimalism, remember: it's not about having less; it’s about making room for more dance parties in the living room! 🕺💃 Let’s do this, Karen! Ready to declutter your way to a tidier and less stressful life? Or at least to find the living room floor again? Tune in and let's get minimalistic!
Karen, Watch This! Transforming Our Home: Decluttering Into Minimalism Together!

Arts, Culture, Choreography, Community Development, Equity & Justice ALF Senior Fellow Dance/USA Artist Fellow
OMG what a week in Baltimore! I Co-presented "Choreographing Better Cities: Dance as a Critical Placemaking Tool" at Project for Public Spaces' 4th Annual International Placemaking Week in Baltimore with Bella Stenvall Carly Bales, CJay Phillip, and Edwin Wee. We spoke about how experiencing live dance creates powerful, embodied moments for learning and reflection, whether that is encountering a performance in public space or engaging in a movement practice. Our session also talked about: -How can we better embed dance into placemaking conversations? -To what capacities are dance organizations currently involved in placemaking across diverse geographies? -How are dancers and dance-makers serving as activators, disruptors, enhancers (intentionally or unintentionally) of public spaces? -What tools do dance organizations need to expand their mission into placemaking, and what are the benefits? -How can cities, planners, and public leaders better advocate for dance as a placemaking tool in their policies? I am excited to continue the conversation about how we advance our cities and the arts & cultural landscape by being more inclusive to various forms of art making. #placemaking #art #dance #artsandculture #placekeeping #placemakingweek

BNVC Unveiled: Nightlife’s Revolution: Navigating the Subcultural Current in the Age of Visual Rebellion. In the pulse of global expression, where authenticity takes center stage, people are ditching traditional subcultures and political postures. Instead, they’re embracing a rebellion of aesthetics, forging connections through visually driven cultures. It’s a relentless cycle: individuals crave uniqueness, birthing subcultures that evolve into anti-trends, ultimately leading to a new mainstream. But let’s dive deeper. In the fluid Internet age, where identity is malleable, you can be anyone or anything. This freedom, however, isn’t without its challenges. Picture the inner conflict: sustainability versus consumerism, anti-capitalist ideals versus lifestyle choices. Amidst this chaos, subcultures persist, demanding four crucial elements: •SPACE: Creating realms for existence. •ACCESS: Empowering with resources, information, and connections. •TIME: Nurturing the exploration of shared interests. •PASSION: Fostering purpose and collective struggle. In this landscape of dynamic self-expression, the emphasis on a critical aspect that transcends the digital realm is constant—the importance of physical spaces. In the context of nightlife, offline spaces and local events in physical venues are not just important; they are the very birthplaces of culture. They play an indispensable role in giving life to subcultures and providing the necessary environment for their evolution. At BNVC, we recognize the significance of these physical spaces in shaping the narrative of nightlife. Our commitment extends beyond the digital domain as we actively support and work towards creating and maintaining these tangible environments. We understand that subcultures need more than just a virtual presence; they need real-world spaces to thrive and flourish. So, as we collectively dissect the dynamics of this rebellious evolution, we invite you to consider: How will you contribute to the thriving subcultural landscape? Will you actively participate in the creation and maintenance of these physical spaces that breathe life into nightlife’s uncharted territories? The revolution is underway, and the question remains - are you ready to be a part of the subcultural vanguard shaping the future of nightlife?
