Conclusion : towards a deeper understanding of the arts in placemaking. 330 $aThis interdisciplinary book explores the role of art in placemaking in urban environments, analysing how artists and communities use arts to improve their quality of life. It explores the concept of social practice placemaking, where artists and community members are seen as equal experts in the process. Drawing on examples of local level projects from the USA and Europe, the book explores the impact of these projects on the people involved, on their relationship to the place around them, and on city policy and planning practice. Case studies include Art Tunnel Smithfield, Dublin, an outdoor art gallery and community space in an impoverished area of the city; The Drawing Shed, London, a contemporary arts practice operating in housing estates and parks in Walthamstow; and Big Car, Indianapolis, an arts organisation operating across the whole of this Midwest city. This book offers a timely contribution, bridging the gap between cultural studies and placemaking. It will be of interest to scholars, students and practitioners working in geography, urban studies, architecture, planning, sociology, cultural studies and the arts. 606 $aArts and society 606 $aCommunity arts projects 606 $aSociology, Urban 615 0$aArts and society. 615 0$aCommunity arts projects. 615 0$aSociology, Urban. 676 $a701/.03 676 $a701.03 700 $aCourage$b Cara.$0896238 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910163874603321 996 $aArts in place$92002044 997 $aUNINA
