Enhancing community connections in Cincinnati, by reclaiming alleys, sidewalks, and steps for the pedestrian.
In addition to our typical cleanup activities, we also love to program those secondary spaces that are seldom seen as places to recreate. Join us for installments of our film series, a collaboration with the Cincinnati Film Society, screened in alleys throughout Cincinnati! Watch this space for a listing of future events.
History
Spring in Our Steps piggybacked on a wonderful tradition from eco-hostel Ghettopia Bunk Haus to begin hosting film screenings that exhibit work happening in cities around the world. We call it a “flicker” as a way to signify a film showing in an unconventional setting, in a flash. The next morning, you wouldn’t even know that great times were had, but you’ll notice a change in the appearance of the alley itself! We are pleased to present these events throughout Cincinnati in an effort to diversify the methods through which we celebrate the less appreciated pedestrian space in Cincinnati! They are meant, simply, to be community gatherings in less conventional public space for neighborhood joy.
