Maintaining our city shouldn't be this scary.
A year ago, the Mayor announced LA’s first-ever citywide Capital infrastructure Program — a promise to finally invest in our parks, libraries, cooling centers, and streets in a clear, coordinated way..

Dress Code: COSTUME, of course. Show up as anything inspired by infrastructure — as literal, creative, or satirical as you’d like. If it touches how our city gets built (or doesn’t), it counts. Maybe you’ll be a Ghost of a Project Past, Spirit of the Broken Sidewalk, or a Budget Cut. And we’ll honor the creativity, commitment, and chaos with our awards:
Climate Couture to the Greenest Project
Show-Stopper: The project most likely to be stopped and stalled midway.
Permit Pending- The costume that almost came together
