Chinatown Cultural Plan 華埠文化規劃 點此看英語版 Click here for English version 簡介 《華埠文化規劃》是一項針對華埠未來發展的綜合性策略,旨在將其打造成一個歷史文化街區與文化藝術中心。本規劃概述了華埠目前的文化與藝術生態系統,並提出了一系列策略,以便支撐並培養在華埠創造文化與藝術的人員、場所、企業與組織。作為《華埠總體規劃》的附錄,《文化規劃》明確闡述了一系列共同願景、價值觀與行動,以維護華埠作為波士頓移民、工人階級以及亞裔僑居社區的繁榮文化空間的地位。 背景 華埠為何需要文化規劃? 儘管華埠的文化活動蓬勃發展,但對於創建該街區的獨特文化的工人階級與移民而言,他們面臨著空前嚴峻的流離失所威脅。居民與社區組織意識到,文化要蓬勃發展,人們必須齊心協力,在城市發展壓力下保護文化傳承者、場所、企業和機構的資源。「文化」的創造與保護不僅關乎美學或消費品,更與人們及其生活方式,以及作為力量、歸屬感以及福祉源泉的文化的保護相關。用規劃師Ananth Udupa的話來說,「就算你有房子,但是如果沒人和你一起生活,那你會很難生存下去。」文化規劃是一個至關重要的工具,它圍繞著保護華埠的藝術與文化生態系統,以及確保它們繼續在未來蓬勃發展來對策略和利益相關者進行協調。 「我們不希望華埠淪為迪士尼樂園式的華埠。我們需要確保華埠能夠繼續包容各種身份、僑民以及對話,繼續成為文化生活的一個充滿活力的部分,任何人都能在其中體驗並看到自己的影子。」 — Cynthia Woo 流程 《文化規劃》背後的流程始於不同組織之間的對話,包括ACDC、包氏藝術中心、華埠土地信託會(Chinatown Community Land Trust)和露絲·甘迺迪綠道保護會(Rose Kennedy Greenway),以組織並簡化社區的各種藝術文化戰略。此前,華埠總體規劃委員會(Chinatown Master Plan Committee)和大都會區域規劃委員會(Metropolitan Area Planning Commission,簡稱MAPC)於2018年展開了一項參與式社區規劃流程,最終制定了《華埠2020年總體規劃》。 藝術家在規劃流程中的參與構成了此專案的一個重要方面。組織方聘請了一個藝術家團隊來設計、執行並記錄創意社區參與活動。這些藝術家負責制定參與策略,以覆蓋社區的不同領域,並透過多種感官和認知方式來獲取意見。有關藝術家團隊的參與策略的更多資訊,請參閱社區參與。 「如果我們希望華埠發展成文化街區,那你就需要思考如何將文化、街道、住房以及不同政策關聯起來……另外,我們希望能在調查與焦點小組外有更多途徑,希望人們可以透過不同方式來與這個規劃產生聯繫,因此我們希望藝術家能參與到流程中來。」 — Lydia Lowe Jump To
