Landscape Architects to Host Public Activities | Environment

From Alaska to Florida and everywhere in between, landscape architects across the country will hold simultaneous events at lunchtime to educate the public about their role in the environment around them. Downtown Buffalo will host local landscape architects who will sketch, create chalk drawings, hand out information and be available to answer questions at the Olmsted Parkway at the intersection of Bidwell Parkway and Elmwood Avenue.

Landscape architects design iconic places like New York City’s Central Park and the FDR Memorial in Washington, D.C., but also downtown squares, local parks and even backyards. The simultaneous events are part of a larger campaign to help bring awareness to works of landscape architecture and the designers who create them.
