Project: Waller Creek Is For Lots Of People Making An Amazing Cake Of Waller Creek + Eating It.

And Brainstorming And Then Eating The Cake Too.

Oh my goodness. Last weekend was one the most amazing design-build adventures I’ve ever been a part of. Mind you, it was cake and we didn’t get to do any sort of ‘built’ imagining of possibility on the cake itself but:

1.The number of people who participated (over 100), spilling out into the street and stopping traffic.

2.The large number of people (close to 100) who were unwittingly recruited to spread the Waller Creek word (through the patented brainstorm nametag for cake swap program).

3.The number of people of all ages who worked on the cake at the same time (almost 25), transforming twelve chocolate cakes into a wonderfully tasty and surprisingly beautiful model of the Waller Creek planning district.

……..was absolutely outstanding…….and tasty.

A favorite quote by the founder of the Garden Posse (www.gardenposse.blogspot.com/)-

‘So much cake & fun @publicworkshop Waller Creek topographical cake event. My mind has opened to the wonders of combining activism & baking.’

A more detailed report and incredible images will follow shortly.
