Newsletter #4: Join us May 8th

Hello from Manresa!

We would like to announce that registration for our second engagement happening on May 8th at Brien McMahon High School from 6PM-8PM is now open.

During the upcoming meeting, we will reintroduce the project team, provide a project overview, share an update on the status of the community engagement process, and present the feedback from our first meeting. Speakers include project team members from Manresa Island Corp, the nonprofit managing and funding Manresa Island Park; SCAPE, the landscape architecture firm leading the park’s design; and Bjarke Ingels Group (“BIG”), the architecture firm leading the building construction.

There will be a mix of informative and interactive tables for community members, with many opportunities to learn more about the project. Each table will highlight a key aspect of the project, focusing on Manresa Island Park as a place for gathering, play, and exploration.

We will also host an activity table where children are invited to draw their dream playground, in addition to a digital oral history booth that allows guests to share their personal stories about Manresa Island.

Come join us for our second Manresa Island Park Community Engagement event - let's connect, have fun, and strengthen our community together!
