Livable Cities 2017 Symposium – Apr 13

“Livable Cities” brings together interdisciplinary research, creative inquiry and city planning methods to explore current city development through sound, smell and other embodied perspectives.
Presented by Simon Fraser University and hosted by the City of New Westminster, this one-day symposium will take up various disciplinary approaches, including architecture, community development, and socio-cultural issues.
Communities in flux across the Lower Mainland present unique opportunities to engage with city planning strategies, urban densification, and the impact of soundscapes, smellscapes and mobilities on local urban environments.
Visiting Scholars include Mel McBride and Randolph Jordan. Evening concert curated by Barry Truax.
Thursday, April 13
9:00 am – 9:00 pm
Anvil Centre – 777 Columbia Street, New Westminster
