Wednesday, February 10, 2-3pm, this on-line event requires advance registration
Join America Walks for a conversation with Sara Hendren about her book What Can a Body Do? How We Meet the Built World. Walking or wheeling, accompanied or alone, getting around in public space means getting into the public sphere — and for people with disabilities, the very fabric of streets and sidewalks and architecture has had to be remade, edited and altered, to make moving around possible for all of us. Sharing the city and sharing civic life isn’t easy or obvious, but the design of those spaces can help us build the collective futures we want.
Sara Hendren, design researcher at Olin College, will share stories and examples of the generative, surprising, and universally human ways that we can think anew about the design of our homes, workplaces, city streets, and more. Elizabeth Guffey and Claire Stanley will join the conversation during a robust question-and-answer session for the second half of the webinar.
