Description
Hester Street worked with Grain Collective to engage the Sunset Park community in the design of the programming and space for The New Sunset Park Library. The community engagement process included interviews with local service providers, organizations, librarians, and elected officials; a patron survey; two large public workshops; 4 focus groups with population groups not well represented at large workshops, and a community report back to ensure that what the community identified as priorities for programs and services as well as space allocation within the new library was captured in a final report to Brooklyn Public Library.
