Please join us to celebrate the completion and approval of the Bloomington Citywide Creative Placemaking Plan


This plan would not have been possible without the collective efforts of many individuals and organizations who generously offered their expertise, creativity, and insights. From resident to artists and engagement partners to city staff and commissioners, their contributions laid the foundation for a brighter, more connected future for Bloomington. We honor and celebrate the invaluable role everyone played in this journey.

Enjoy:

  • Music from DJ Cassieopia
  • Mini performances by Alive & Kickin (4:30 PM) and Concerto Dance (5:30 PM) in the Black Box
  • Brief remarks by Mayor Busse and Creative Placemaking Director Alejandra Pelinka (4:45 PM)
  • Join Artistry for a burst of creativity with two all ages crafts: 'zine making and tote bag decorating! Design your own mini magazine using collage, writing, and drawing, or personalize a canvas tote with stamps, markers, and stencils. No experience or supplies needed—just bring your imagination and make something uniquely you!
  • Refreshments and light hors d'oeuvres from D.Brian's Kitchen Food Catering - Bloomington location.
