Mark Canney, Park Planner for Lincoln Parks & Recreation, will focus on the aesthetics of Lincoln’s public places and the FUNctional approach taken in their design. Canney says, “As our city grows, so does the demand for beautiful public places. Even with shrinking city budgets, our staff remains committed to creating relevant and accessible landscapes that everyone can enjoy.” This all-things-green brownbag is sponsored by Nebraska Statewide Arboretum, Lincoln Parks & Recreation, UNL Institute of Agriculture & Natural Resources and the Lincoln Downtown Association.
