Creative placemaking has been evolving from a narrow definiti on of applying art and design ideas to community projects into a more expansive, equity-focused field of practice. As the funder consortium Art Place America describes it, 鈥淐reati ve placemaking happens when artists and arts organizations join their neighbors in shaping their community鈥檚 future, working together on place-based community outcomes. It鈥檚 not necessarily focused on making places more creative; it鈥檚 about creatively addressing challenges and opportunities鈥. creative placemaking at its best is locally defined and informed and about the people who live, work, and play in a place.鈥
