Protect Volunteer Park
Jan 19, 2017
Protect Volunteer Park organization now has the backing of The Cultural Landscape Foundation to fight against the taking of parkland by the Seattle Asian Art Museum. Volunteer Park is now part of the foundation’s Stewardship Landslide Program. The campaign has started with several, recent local press releases: See: The Cultural Landscape Foundation: http://tclf.org/ Threatened Seattle’s Volunteer Park “A proposed construction project poses a threat to the integrity of Volunteer Park's significant Olmsted Brothers-designed landscape. The threat is the proposed 13,650-square-foot expansion of the Asian Art Museum. In 2008, citizens voted to support badly-needed seismic and mechanical upgrades to the original building. After an eight-year hiatus, planning efforts for improvements to the museum quietly resumed but included the largely unpublicized expansion. See Volunteer Park page for more info: http://tclf.org/threatened-seattles-volunteer-park. Please visit and take action at: www.protectvolunteerpark.org and www.thinkagainsaam.org. And send petition link to friends and post on facebook. Thank you for your continued support, The Protect Volunteer Park Team
