Faced with the fact that New York City public schools are underfunded, Friends of Makers and Artist is bridging the gap by facilitating sustainable partnerships between public school staff, local government, and public and private organizations to deliver enrichment programming to their students at PS 191. Our bold, colorful identity and website for Friends of Makers and Artist expresses their vision to create a business model that works to empower today’s underserved youth to “grow, build, and give back” to their communities.
