This will be the Urban Atlas Project’s inaugural public workshop! You will be joining for an afternoon of interactive dialogue as we begin to build our archive of narratives around urban development through active storytelling and collectively unearth the past, reveal the present and imagine the future of our neighborhoods. Drop by, say hello and help begin an archive of insights and actions!

July 12, 2014
1:00 pm – 4:00 pm
The Sugar Hill Children’s Museum of Art and Storytelling
155th Street and St. Nicholas Ave
New York, NY 10032

Founded by Design and Urban Ecologies graduates Sabrina Dorsainvil and Luisa Múnera, the Urban Atlas Project is an archive of narratives around urban development as seen through a Five Lenses approach of Stories, Boundaries, Power Dynamics, Networks and Imaginaries. It serves as a platform for local artists, residents and youth to critically investigate, unearth and imagine the ways in which processes and effects of urban development impact their everyday life. Participants can recognize neighbors with similar interests, voice concerns about how things are changing and develop ideas around how to make things better.

Workshop supported by a collaboration between The New School Collaboratory and No Longer Empty’s “If You Build It” held in partnership with Broadway Housing Communities New Development in Sugar Hill.
