Placemaking Canada was formed to connect public space advocates across the country. For 10 years we’ve convened gatherings, championed initiatives and empowered placemakers. As we enter our next decade, public space even more important. We look forward to you being part of our next chapter.

Let’s celebrate! It’s been a year since Placemaking Canada co-hosted the 2nd Global Placemaking Summit in Toronto with @placemakingx.bsky.social What a time it was - over four days we brought together over 320 participants representing over 20 countries in 8 unforgettable venues across the City.

In coordination with @placemaking-canada.bsky.social we are pleased to share a draft report of the 2nd #GlobalPlacemakingSummit: www.placemakingx.org/summit25
