phase 01 — diary disks
11 installations. 11 disks. 11 diaries.
Hosted at different community centers, from the farmer’s market to the bike co-op, Diary Disks prompted community members to share their thoughts and experiences during the pandemic.

I IMAGINE
The youth is our future, and we looked no further than NXTHVN to hear from the next generation of artists.
MITCHELL BRANCH
I WANT
Collective healing starts with our bodies. It starts with caring for ourselves and for each other. As New Haven reopened, we took deep breaths and completed a yoga workshop together.

phase 03 — the park
the Memorial Art Park
Memorial Art Park (M.A.P.) is our goal!
To not only transform a brownfield into a community green space, but to do so in a highly COVID-19 impacted neighborhood, is our goal!
Memorial Mapping is our progress!
Most importantly, we value doing this together.
Healing collectively. Building community around the arts. Designing and imagining what an arts-centered healing space can look like, both physically and as a collective of people, is the progress that brings M.A.P. and its robust arts programming to fruition!
