\"\"<\/p>\n

Friends of The Underline kicked off the new year with an all day board of directors retreat Saturday, January 26th at our offices at Building.co near Brickell.\u00a0 <\/span>Led by friend and facilitator Bud Park, our board members were led through a visioning exercise for The Underline, discussing the project\u2019s mission, vision, goals and our team\u2019s core values.\u00a0 <\/span>With lively discussions about our shared passion for public green spaces, community connectivity and equity and positive impacts on public health and wellness, we emerged enthusiastic about 2019 and beyond.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So what are we working on\u00a0this year?<\/b><\/p>\n

1.<\/b> The Underline\u2019s Brickell Backyard opens in June 2020. While this seems like a long time away, it\u2019s actually just around the corner! So, we are planning our opening celebration for Brickell Backyard. From health and wellness to cultural and educational activations, look forward to a robust line up of community-based events on The Underline.<\/p>\n

2.<\/b> Curator Ximena Caminos has created a bold art master plan to engage and connect the community with public art and each other. Last year, the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation awarded a matching grant of $500,000 to The Underline for art. We would like to raise the matching funds privately this year. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3.<\/b> We are also collaborating with Miami-Dade County to ensure that design and construction for Phase II and V are on time and delivered to the project vision. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

4.<\/b> Continue improving our health and wellness and community events pre-construction.\u00a0 <\/span>This year we are introducing DocWalks, where we walk and talk about ways to be healthy.\u00a0 <\/span>Look for more info our first walk coming April 13th leaving from South Miami Hospital.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
