Alone Together

Park Your Loneliness: Benches Are Made For Two


Listen Later

Benches are places in public spaces where people can sit by themselves. They are special because they’re not just a place to sit, 

they’re spots available to anyone and that availability turns benches into opportunities for connections.


Benches are bridges between those eager to chat, and those wanting to just listen. 


When we sit on a bench, we’re indicating we’re part of a world that maybe we feel too lonely or afraid to fully participate in.

Benches give us an opportunity to be engaged in our surroundings whether it's observing from the side or opening up a chance for conversation.
