What if anyone could redesign their city — with chalk?
That’s what happened in New York. A group led by Miles Grant showed up, drew on the pavement, and passersby joined in. Within minutes, they’d imagined a new city: gardens, homes, schools. Security came with a hose and washed it away — but not before something real was created: a shared vision.
Visual Assembly through chalk is simple. No permits. No leaders. Just space, people, and imagination.
Pick a street that needs care. Bring chalk and friends. Start drawing. Others will join. Ask questions on the ground:
What do we need here? What would care look like?
If no one stops you — great. If they do — document it. You’ve already succeeded.
Photograph everything. Upload to the Units of Care map (link).
This is not a protest. It’s not art.
It’s collective dreaming in action.
Start one. This weekend. Anywhere.
More Assemblies — free, messy, and many.
This is how we win.
