SITES OF HISTORICAL MEMORY AND HERITAGE

For this second studio exercise, students conducted a listening session with the D7 Advisory Council about important sites of cultural heritage and memory that the ARTery must help preserve and lift up. Then they followed up with archival research and created summary posters of their findings to share back with the community leaders what they learned.
