Norris Square Neighborhood Project

Norris Square Neighborhood Project is a non-profit, community-run, multi-cultural, bilingual, urban, environmental and cultural learning center. Located on the east side of Norris Square Park, NSNP provides a safe environment for children and families to come to meet, learn, exchange ideas, and solve problems by working together. Founded in 1973 by Natalie Kempner, a local fifth-grade school teacher, NSNP has been successfully working, educating and revitalizing this West Kensington neighborhood ever since. Through gardening, the arts, environmental learning and cultural exploration a generation of children has grown up at NSNP and new members join this extended family every year.
