The Experience, Emeryville: RCCD Eco Art
The Experience: Big Daddy - Placemaking in the Urban Environment! Who was Big Daddy? Folks always ask this. When the abandoned gas station on Peralta burned down, the City of Emeryville asked the residents what they’d like to see on the site. Big Daddy’s Complete Rejuvenating Community Garden is the result, the name a riff on Big Daddy Green’s original car-detailing business there. Big Daddy’s is hosting a series of events this summer. You can tour the raised-bed garden boxes tended by community members, the eco-friendly home to many native plants and pollinators as well as numerous sculptures and artworks. Sunday Summer Events and Eco-Art will happen on Aug 18, 23, Sept 15 and Oct 1 with funding provided by the State of California and Emeryville’s Rotten City Cultural District. Admission is free and the site is wheelchair accessible. Join them for their first Eco-Art event at Big Daddy’s. 2:00 PM, Sunday, August 18 Opening Reception 3:00 PM Poetry reading by Rafael Jesús González, Berkeley Poet Laureate Emeritus,
