Project Row Houses (PRH) is founded on the principle that art and the community that creates it can revitalize even the most depressed of inner-city neighborhoods, for the mutual good of existing and future residents. Thus, the mission of Project Row Houses is to create community through the celebration of art and African American history and culture.
The over arching theme of the PRH Arts/Education Program is “Building Community – Community as Social Sculpture”. The 2012 Summer Program theme is “Communograph: Mapping Our Community”. Using the term communograph (community + writing) coined by Artist Ashley Hunt, students will explore the question, “How do you see your community?” They will express their vision of community through visual arts, creative writing, dance, choir, and more. Science and math curricula will also be introduced for a well-rounded and fun summer! Spaces are limited and will be awarded on a first come, first served basis.
