Unity Park

In 2018 The Felege Hiywot Center hosted a Blue House Film Camp to help the FHC youth creaete a short documentary about the creation of Unity Park. This is the story about how a community of two generations came together to build something beautiful.

Director’s Statement

This project was done in collaboration with The Felege Hiywot Center during one of the film camps that I teach during the summer. We wanted to tell the amazing story of how the students worked to transform an abandoned lot into something beautiful in the Martindale - Brightwood neighborhood. Through the process the youth learned how to engage with their community in order to make an impact. I’m honored to have been able to capture their story and share it with you.
