Here’s an exciting opportunity for middle schoolers who live in the West End and Visitation Park neighborhoods. The Magic House, MADE for Kids and Cornerstone, a not-for-profit that renovates houses and leases them at affordable rates in the West End neighborhood, is seeking students ages 11 to 13 to help envision the future of their neighborhoods.
The students on the Youth Advisory Board will learn principles of urban design and share their ideas on possible community improvements with the community in mid-November. Details follow:
Lisa Potts, chair of Park Place Housing & Economic Development, emailed that this opportunity may be extended to youth in other neighborhoods in the future.
