WEEK 1
Community Character
Welcome to Week 1, Community Character! Think of Community Character like the difference between Chartreuse and Shamrock – both are shades of green but they are distinct from each other. Help us understand the ‘shade’ or character of Gilberts!

All-Ages Outdoor Recreation
Look at the photos below which show examples of All-Ages Outdoor Recreation. Is this something you think “fits” in Gilberts?
Gateway + Wayfinding Signage
Look at the different ways that signage can be used to welcome, point people in the right direction, and share information. Could adding signs like these enhance Gilberts?
Community Garden
Shared garden spaces, such as those pictured below, are a way to bring the community together. Would you participate in a Community Garden alongside neighbors in Gilberts?
Multi-Use Paths and Bike Trails
Paths and Trails can connect a community to more than just parks and open spaces, especially when located along major roadways. Would you and your family use Paths and Trails if available in Gilberts?
Public Art
The below photos show just a few examples of the ways Public Art can be incorporated into communities. Do you feel that Gilberts needs public art?
