Green Schoolyards

In 2020, Art x Love was engaged by The Trust for Public Land (TPL) to create a special activity book for Los Angeles’ Green Schoolyards program. We worked with TPL’s national and local leaders to identify the themes, educational content, and activities we wanted to feature with the goal of creating design elements that could be extrapolated and refined for other communities across California.

Mac developed the wireframes, wrote the copy, and illustrated the entire 16-page activity book. Mac created six “heroes” who appear throughout the activity book to share their expertise on heat, water, wind, equity, community, and health. Since launching in 2021, the Green Schoolyards activity book has been translated into multiple languages and used by multiple TPL communities across the United States.
