Please join us as Rosalyn D. Elder AIA, LEED AP, Chair of the Placemaking Network facilitates a discussion with the leadership of Artists for Humanity, AFH, Susan Rodgerson, Jason Talbot, Richard Frank, and Courtney Ford, in an exploration of how this innovative, mission driven arts organization achieves such high levels of success. AFH empowers local youth to gain self-sufficiency through paid employment in art and design. AFH's portfolio includes public art installations such as art projections on prominent Boston buildings, interior and exterior public art murals, environmental graphics, wayfinding graphics, public art sculptures, and street furniture. AFH teens were the graphic designers for the logo of the BSA's Race and Architecture Network. |
