Connecting Dots: Mapping Community Gardens in Providence Providence City Government, The Parks Department, Providence, RI 2019 September As a Maharam STEAM Fellow working with the Parks Department, my core mission was to create a collective map that gathers and narrates individual identity of community gardens in Providence. A single dot is insignificant but if there are multiple, it has a stronger capacity to bring attention. Food justice is an ultimate element that completes the cycle of urban agriculture.

The collective entity forms a larger movement of urban agriculture in Providence.
