+/-92: downtown master plans

The exhibit, “+/-92: Downtown Master Plans, 1932-2009,” showcased a compilation of over 100 Downtown Tucson master plans, comprehensive plans, studies and projects authored from the early 20th century to 2009. The exhibit included an interactive timeline to help viewers track local and world events in relation to the plans’ origins, realization, or death, and photographs of downtown spaces and places, which viewers were invited to label as “postive,” “neutral,” or “negative.” My role was to engage the public. I did so by assembling a crew of official performing “apparatchiks.” We issued public input surveys and processed it (heavily) on site.

The show was a collaboration between Worker, Inc., Pop-Up Spaces and Design Co*op.
