Futurehood TM

We create and produce community sponsored block parties that engage the local communities in innovative initiatives in the schools that define them. We seek to encourage community ownership of green education initiatives and to suggest that education is not bound by the walls of the school building. In Futurehood, communities are playgrounds, classrooms, and interactive experimental laboratories.
