Project Prospera is a Chicago-based collective of artists, designers, advocates, attorneys, and technologists. We combine design-thinking, art-making, community education, public policy, and leadership development. We identify and bolster solutions to social issues by:
- using design-thinking to simplify complex policy and legal issues into accessible action steps
- building on individual and community assets such as resilience, creativity, and innate talent
- using art, technology, and popular education as a means of community education, empowerment, and joy
- acknowledging that everyday people from all communities are "makers," "doers," and "creatives."
