Calling all young city-builders!
We want to hear kids’ ideas for Scarborough Centre. As current users of the area and future users in years to come, kids have unique needs, preferences, interests, and opinions. We challenge them to re-imagine our map of the area using arts and crafts supplies to include the buildings, parks, shops, pathways, and other elements they would like to see in the future.
This mixed-media collaborative art project aims to empower children to share their aspirations for their community while capturing their perspectives on the future of Scarborough Centre. As curators of their own maps and creations, what kids choose to include or exclude will tell us a lot about their perceptions and preferences for their environments.
We invite parents, guardians, and teachers to download our activity workbook. Have your child read the instructions and draw or build on the map at the end of the workbook. Send us photos of your child’s completed submission form and map to oursc@toronto.ca (please keep the image size to under 25 MB). We’ll showcase a selection on our website and in Study materials. Spread the word and share your creation on social media using #LittleSC!
