Open Streets Activity and Parklet Sign Up Form
Did you know that Tour de Nash will have an Open Streets aspect this year? Think of Open Streets as your canvas – a place to gather with friends and unleash your creativity on the street. Here’s the deal: anything you can do at the park, playground, picnic, or a lazy day in the sun — you can do it right here on 51st Avenue. 
Bring your chairs, your favorite games, and most importantly... your friends! The best way to reserve a spot for yourself, your family, or organization is to fill out this form. Need ideas? We’ve included some below: 

Living Room on the Street: Bring chairs and a deck of cards and people will come! Get real fancy if you want with a couch or coffee table but folding chairs will do perfect.

Chalk Art Extravaganza: Remember when you doodled on the driveway as a kid? Well, the asphalt is your canvas now. Grab some colorful chalk and create masterpieces or quirky messages for passersby.

Picnic Vibes: Spread out your checkered blanket, unpack your favorite snacks, and share laughter with friends.

Jam Sessions: Got a guitar, ukulele, or even a kazoo? Bring it along! Set up an impromptu music corner, strum those chords, and let the melodies flow. Who knows? You might start a sidewalk concert.

Parklet: find a parallel parking spot, set up your turf, potted plants, benches and other items to create your very own park for a day. See Nashville Parking Day for ideas. 

Tour de Nash Basecamp: Riding in Tour de Nash? Claim a spot to hang with your cycling friends after the ride. Friends and family can enjoy the space while they cheer you on from your basecamp!

Games, games, games: Make a 4 square tournament, play your favorite sport, or start an impromptu trivia challenge. 

Sponsors can also use this form to reserve a space to set up for the event.

We are excited to engage the community around the start/finish line to reimagine the streetscape and enjoy the space with neighbors!

Please describe what your set-up will include (will you have an activity? how much space do you need? what materials do you plan on bringing? *
Parklets at OSN are not required to be formal or fully constructed; if you just want to bring lawn chairs and an umbrella for your neighbors or rider basecamp, that is a parklet!
Activities can be anything from sports, to art projects, to book clubs, to gardening- and anything in between!
Do you have a preferred location along 51st Ave to set up your activity or parklet?
Clear selection
If yes, please let us know where. We will try to accommodate your preference within the footprint.
As reference, Open Streets will span from Louisiana Ave to Georgia Ave. Space between those roads along 51st Ave will be part of the event; designating neighborhood streets is not within our scope.
Is there anything you would like us to know about your activity or parklet? 
Do you have a specific time you'd like to host your activity? Are there materials you'll be using that we should know about? Any way we can help? Please leave additional thoughts here!

We will be in contact with you ahead of the event, sharing details on the street layout, a schedule of the planned activities, and any other information we have to share.
