ComplexCities

A sprawling 3D youth‑made city earned a feature in The Washington Post for its scale, beauty, and truth. This large-scale, interactive 3D city explored the complexities of modern teen life. 

The exhibit included murals, sculptures, narrative installations, and multimedia pieces addressing themes such as love, homelessness, mental health, drug use, and community belonging.

 Culturally competent workshops that blended health education with narrative empowerment.  Students explored identity, boundaries, confidence, and self-advocacy through storytelling, collage, and reflective writing.  

 Narrative work can transform health education into a space of agency, clarity, and community-building.
