Divide everyone into smaller groups of 5 - 10 people. Each group should have a stack of small sticky notes (around 10 per group member), large sticky notes (around 10 total), and markers (at least 1 per group member). Each group should have a facilitator to make sure that the activity runs smoothly.
STEP 2: Individual brainstorming.
For 5 minutes on their own, ask group members to use the small sticky notes to write down as many different ways they would complete the following sentence:
In the year..., [insert year & name of space] will be ______________________________.
Instruct them to use one sticky note for each idea. For example, if I had three ideas, I would use three sticky notes to complete the above sentence:

Sticky note #1: "a pedestrian paradise"

Sticky note #2: "a family-friendly destination"

Sticky note #3: "the most well-used public space in the city"

Once the five minutes is over, each participant should have a small stack of sticky notes one idea per sticky note.
STEP 3: Idea sharing
In each small group, the facilitator should ask each participant to take turns sharing what they wrote on their sticky notes and provide any additional explanation/detail. As each person shares out an idea, they should post the associated sticky note on a nearby flat surface, such as a table or a wall, so that the entire group can clearly see it.
STEP 4: Categorize
Once everyone in the small group has shared their ideas and all the sticky notes are clearly displayed on the table/wall, ask group members to identify any major themes that emerged from the sticky notes. Re-arrange the sticky note ideas into columns, so that each column represents one clear theme. Some ideas will fit nice and neatly into a single theme, while others may end up in a "miscellaneous" or "other" column.

Place one large sticky note at the top of each column. On each large sticky note, write down a short description of the theme that was expressed in the associated column.
STEP 5: Form a collective statement.
Looking at the column headers, work collectively to craft a vision statement that captures all the major themes that your group developed. For instance, if the theme headers are "AGE-FRIENDLY", "WALKABLE", "A DESTINATION", and "SAFE", perhaps your vision statement looks sounds a little bit like this:

"In the year 2030, [location name] will be a walkable destination that is safe and welcoming towards people of all ages."

Each group should write down the full vision statement they developed on a separate large sticky note.
STEP 6: Share-outs
Once each small group has developed a vision statement, ask a representative from each group to share their group's vision statement with the rest of the room.

Collect the vision statements from each group and use them to create a cohesive vision statement that will guide the next phases of your project.

Prior to hosting the engagement activity, design your postcard. We like to print out images and illustrations on one side of 4"x6" cardstock that are relevant to the project site we're working in. The opposite side of the postcard should contain the prompt "Greetings from the future!" or something similar. Print out as many of these as you think you'll need.
STEP 2: Set the scene.
Set up a table with inspiration cards on display. Inspiration cards are printed images of various examples of high-quality streets, parks, and public spaces from all over the world. You can make your own.

Ask participants to browse through the inspiration cards on the table to spark their imaginations. Participants may select a few of the cards that represent something they would like to see or experience in their community in ten years.
STEP 3: Prompt the participants.
Ask participants to picture themselves in the space you're looking to improve, only ten years in the future.
STEP 4: Write a postcard from the future.
Using one of the blank postcards, ask participants to a short note to someone (a friend, family member, a City Councilor) and describe what they are experiencing in that space, ten years from now. What do they see, hear, smell, feel?
STEP 5: Postcard exhibit.
Place all the postcards on display for passersby and fellow participants to see. A cheap and visually attractive way of doing this is by hanging a long string and using a clothespin to attach the postcards to the string.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Impatiens are low-maintenance colourful flowers that grow quickly. Orchids, while very beautiful, take a lot of time, planning, and patience to nurture. This activity helps you think about your streets, parks, and public spaces as either impatiens or orchids.

Impatiens refer to short-term ideas that are low-cost, low-risk, high-visibility and can be implemented in less than one year.

Orchids refer to longer term public space improvement ideas that are higher cost, require more planning and resources and would take two to five years to implement.
Step 1: Explain the concept
Explain the "impatiens and orchids" concept to the group.
Step 2: Quiet brainstorm
Divide the room into small teams of 4-5 people. Provide each participant with a stack of sticky notes. Ask everyone to spend 5 minutes writing down as many ideas for "impatiens" and "orchids" as they possibly can, using one idea per sticky note.
Step 3: Organize the ideas
Within the small groups, ask each participant to share the ideas they came up with, one at a time. As they explain each sticky note, ask them to post the sticky note under the "impatiens" category or the "orchid" category for everyone to see. Use a flat surface such as the table or a nearby wall to post the sticky notes. Once everyone has shared, you should have two categories of sticky notes, one with all the impatiens ideas and one with all the orchids ideas.
Step 4: Select the top three ideas
Within each of the small groups, ask the participants to have a conversation about which of the impatiens and orchids ideas they like best and would like to prioritize in their community. Ask them to select the top three ideas that were written on the sticky notes. It doesn't matter if there's an imbalance between the number of impatiens or orchids that were selected to be in the top 3.
Step 5: Share-out
Have one representative from each small group quickly summarize the top three impatiens and orchids ideas that came out of their group discussions. As in Step 3, each group representative should post the top three sticky notes on a wall. The wall should be divided into two areas -one for impatiens and one for orchids. At the end of the share-out, this wall should display the best ideas from each group, organized into short-term priorities and long-term priorities.
Step 6: Document
Take photos of the final wall and collect all the sticky notes. These can now serve as community-generated ideas to explore further in the planning process.

The POEMS method is used to study people, objects, environment, messages and services within a specific context.

POEMS is an observation framework that allows the observer/researcher to understand the five elements both independently and in a coherent system. With POEMS you can especially look beyond the core object to be observed (e.g. a product) and recognize in which relationships services, news, people and the environment are related to a broader context.

Observing from a broader perspective makes it easier for teams to identify systems and exciting relationships.
