Join the SOHIP Beautification Committee This Saturday

Want to help transform the empty triangular plazas at Gilbert and Avondale into something our neighborhood can be proud of? So do your neighbors. The SOHIP Beautification Committee is hosting a Plaza Pop-Up to talk about ideas, gather input, and invite neighbors to get involved.

Stop by the Islands at Gilbert/Avondale for coffee and a quick chat about your vision for these future SOHIP. You can sign up for the Beautification Committee, share what you’d like to see in the plazas, and help shape our next steps on everything from plantings and trees to small neighborhood projects.

Questions

Everything you need to know about the gathering.

What should I bring?

Bring yourself. Bring a friend if you like. We provide blankets for the cool evening air and coffee to warm your hands. A question is welcome. A story is welcome. Your presence is what matters.

Is this for members only?

No. This gathering is open to anyone who lives in or cares about the neighborhood. You don't need to be a member. You don't need to have attended before. Just show up.

Can I attend online?

The welcome remarks will be available online. The real work happens in person, in the circle, where you can see people's faces and hear their voices without a screen between you.

How long will it last?

We start at six when the light is good. We finish when the conversation runs its course. Plan for two hours, but stay as long as it matters to you.

What if I'm new to the area?

This is exactly the place to start. You'll meet neighbors and leaders who know the community. You'll understand what we're building here. New voices make us stronger.

Still have questions?

Reach out to us directly.
