South by South Lawn

Inspired by the iconic Austin event, the National Park Foundation co-presented South by South Lawn (SXSL) in the fall of 2016. Aptly named for being hosted on the south lawn of the White House (a.k.a. President’s Park – one of the more than 400 units of the National Park System), the festival hosted creators, innovators, and organizations who were finding unique ways to make life better.

Working closely with our supporting agency, I assisted in the coordination of our footprint at the event, the installation of our interactive display, and our onsite volunteers. Over the course of the day, we engaged with event attendees, sharing information about the #FindYourPark / #EncuentraTuParque movement, and educating them on the breadth of the National Park System.
