Designs Ideas for Community Learning Center

Re-Imagining the Future
How to build a Community based Learning and Technology Center for our growing community of youth.

The spaces that we rented for our students did not meet the needs of a growing group of students. They requested quiet study rooms, a lab for computers,  and a space for younger children to sit together on chairs that fit them. We are working with Andrew Sidford Architects to design an multi-room flexible space with air and sunlight, made with local green materials.  The students have begun planting trees and a garden on the land.
