THE COMMUNITY PROJECT

The Community Project is a broad work that set out to feature and explore a sense of community and belonging in Hyattsville, MD. 

I want to celebrate the Hyattsville community through art.

I believe that a strong community involves residents, schools, businesses, officials, non-profits, people from diverse origins and backgrounds. There are multiple ways the Hyattsville community shows solidarity and support to one another. 

I want to highlight the diversity of the people who shape this close-knit community.

Being an immigrant myself with no previous ties to the US, I deeply value the importance of strong connections. It is proven scientifically that being part of a group and being involved in it improves health and overall well-being.
