Welcome to City Repair

City Repair has been at the forefront of placemaking, pioneering projects such intersection murals, joyful kiosks, and sustainable building. We believe in the power of communities to transform their urban spaces into vibrant hubs of creativity and community life.

City Repair is a 501(c)3 registered non-profit that works with local residents and leaders to turn ideas into action. We center projects that honor the interconnection of human communities and the natural world through artistic and ecological placemaking. We provide support, resources, and opportunities to help diverse communities reclaim the culture, power, and joy that we all deserve.


 

Our Programs

City Repair has numerous programs throughout the year including our largest annual program, the Village Building Convergence. Beyond our own programs, we also support individuals/groups to nest their programs under our nonprofit umbrella if there's alignment.
