We hooked up with
P:ear
We like it that the relationships between people collaborating
can create a space where you will find both
discussion and vast creative potential– it creates this inspiring
environment where things are possible. To design together
requires us to listen and develop a dialogue of what could
be possible. Intersections of opportunity like community
collaborations, lets us recognize prejudices, and forces
us to be open to new perspectives. We thought working with
the youth at P:ear would do just that.
P:ear builds positive relationships with homeless and transitional
youth, ages 15 to 23, through education, art and recreation
to affirm personal worth and create more meaningful and healthier
lives. Each year the programs serve more than 350 homeless
and transitional young people.
Together we will create a narrative project focused on empowering
through collecting and publishing the stories nobody ever
asks for. Working on paper, and through sound and motion
we will create an archive of personal voices of the students
of P:ear.
