Hester Street Collaborative's Citizen Designer Internship is an after-school and summer program that provides high-school students with opportunities to gain hands-on experience with community improvement projects. Participants develop a sense of youth leadership as they play an active role in developing and designing tools for creating public art and design projects. The Citizen Designer interns created this blog to the share their work, observations, ideas and experiences with the public.
Hester Street Collaborative
- HSC
- is a design/build non-profit organization created to improve the physical environment in underserved NYC neighborhoods. HSC works with residents and students in affordable housing developments, public spaces, and schools on participatory architectural projects. It is our belief that a design-build process can improve the quality of life in underserved communities in two ways: By creating compelling places, which serve the local residents; By building social capital through the process of articulating and realizing a shared vision.
