Placemaking is the work of creating and sustaining public places that build stronger communities.
Last year, downtown Chattanooga hosted International Placemaking Week - and last month, the website PlacemakingCHA.org invited artists, business owners, civic leaders and residents across the tri-state area to share their stories in the virtual space.
PlacemakingCHA.org is a collaboration between Josiah Golson, artist and placemaker, with Thrive Regional Partnership.
Rhett Bentley is with Thrive.
