Publisher's Summary

We all want to be a part of a thriving community. But, few of us know how to meaningfully contribute to the places where we live, work, learn, and play. Whether you dream of launching a community innovation center, want to enhance your town with colorful murals, or are simply looking to strengthen relationships with your neighbors, Designing Creative Communities is the guide for you.

Award-winning community builder, Spud Marshall, coaches emerging leaders and community members alike through a simple process for how to transform your town into a creative place to call home. Filled with stories from Spud's work over the past decade, Designing Creative Communities teaches you how to actively create change and have a lot of fun along the way. 

The audiobook will introduce you to the CANVAS Framework where you'll learn how to:

  • Chart your path (and avoid getting an RV stuck in the mud).
  • Ask probing questions (by jumping into an inflatable ball pit on the street).
  • Name early adopters (and create a secret society).
  • Visualize a prototype (while ensuring that bees don't escape into your home).
  • Articulate your story (using a giant blue chameleon car).
  • Sustain efforts with partners (without harming a single piano).

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
