Want to Throw an Event in a Plaza?

The Small Plaza Activation process is intended to remove barriers for small-scale (less than 100 people) neighborhood-based activities that build social and community connections in PBOT plazas. If you have an idea for how you would like to use the space to get to know your neighbors, we would love to hear about it!  Check out our Small Plaza Activation page for more info! Best of all, hosting an event is 100% FREE!
