My Project

The materials in this project will help transform an under utilized space into its true potential. Performing is essential in the arts programs as a means for the students to showcase their acting and dancing abilities. In order for them to perform they often need an audience. Our seating in the performance space are cafeteria tables that are not comfortable to our patrons, especially our elderly. Often the most cherished family members do not come to the performance do to lack of comfortable seating. We would like to fix that through this campaign.
