Neighborhood Explorers

 

Neighborhood Explorers educates middle school students about the principles of architecture, urban planning and design and empowers them to become active participants in shaping their community. Participants investigate the East Harlem neighborhood, exploring real world urban issues, and propose innovative solutions. Working with local partners, Neighborhood Explorers improve the quality of life for the East Harlem community. 

 

You can follow Neighborhood Explorers on Facebook and Tumblr.
