Creative Placemaking

This report provides a framework for creative placemaking and identifies elements related to the creative placemaking process. The five elements of creative placemaking include economic development, community development, cultural development, asset-based orientation, and place-based orientation. It assesses creative placemaking through three intertwined lenses: community, culture, and economic development. Additionally, it outlines elements that can lead to successful creative placemaking initiatives, including working towards a vision, developing a network of local leaders, and providing support for the arts.
