The NACO awards honor effective and innovative programs which enhance community life by increasing services to citizens. A program summary of MAM in the Neighborhood is now in the organization’s Model Programs database, allowing users nation-wide to benefit from – and be inspired by – MAM’s experience.
This year’s edition of MAM in the Neighborhood revolves around the exhibition Shadows, Disappearances and Illusions. Activities will include creating scratch art, photograms, and visual tricks. Previous MAM in the Neighborhood programs include production of an award-winning video on the Overtown neighborhood and the creation of a public mural project in East Little Havana.
