Playable art
Abernathy Greenway Park, located in Sandy Springs, Ga., demonstrates what positives are possible when collaboration and cooperation exists among governing entities and the community. With little undeveloped land available to add park area, the community and civic leaders were able to visualize a potential opportunity within a road improvement project. With help from two civic organizations, playable art was added to the park, introducing children to fine art through active outdoor play, promoting the concept of art in public open and green space, as well as encouraging community health and well being.
