The Radius Project is a community engagement program that highlights the accomplishments of imaginative thinkers within a one-mile radius of a neighborhood.
- Through short films and discussions, we help neighbors discover the tapestries of creativity, innovation, and problem-solving already present in their own community.
- Working with PTA groups, arts orgs, environmental advocates, and civic leaders, we identify local artists, environmentalists, and problem solvers who are making an impact.
- We then create a short film about their work and host a community screening and conversation.
These gatherings give historians, educators, families, and residents the opportunity to connect with inspiring neighbors who are improving the quality of life where they live.
Singer Pete Seeger reflected in one of our interviews: “It is the little things in life that transform our societies.”
The Radius Project partners with libraries, schools, and community centers to blend intergenerational conversations with local tours to explore the diverse impact of free expression, environmentalism, and the giving spirit.
Our events help people reimagine their neighborhood as inspiration for future thinkers, doers, and leaders.
