“The challenge of social justice is to evoke a sense of community that we need to make our nation a better place, just as we make it a safer place.” – Marian Wright Edelman

The Hawthorne Shed Project

Archventures is a unique nonprofit organization whose model of community building not only forges coalitions but also delivers tangible results which strengthen our neighborhoods. As a collective of committed citizens, we span the city in search of green design solutions to our local nonprofits' infrastructural needs. We are architects, organizers, builders, advocates, teachers, students, and neighbors. We create a shared experience of learning and collaboration that integrates our communities and creates a better Boston.

To say I was amazed with the project you created with the O’Bryant Girls Basketball team, would be a complete understatement. You transformed a once desolate, uninspiring stairwell into a entryway of hopes, dreams and possibilities. Thank you! I now deliberately park in the back parking lot of the school so I can admire the team and your work when I visit the school.
