Street Lab Inc is a non-profit organization based in Brooklyn, NY that aims to transform public spaces into vibrant learning environments for at-risk children in low-income communities. Through their portable reading room called the Uni Project, they provide free access to high-quality materials and staff-led programs such as drawing studios, creating opportunities for curiosity, safety, and happiness. With a focus on resource equity and community safety, Street Lab collaborates with local partners and citywide initiatives to bring their innovative pop-up programs to neglected plazas, street corners, playgrounds, and NYCHA developments, making a significant impact on the lives of NYC kids.
Supported by foundations, individual donors, and the Mayor's Office of Criminal Justice, Street Lab continues to expand their reach and make a place for learning in underprivileged neighborhoods. Their work includes residencies in various communities, collaborations with art institutions, partnerships with the NYC Department of Transportation for community street festivals, and the development of new pop-up infrastructure for learning. By harnessing the extraordinary potential of public spaces and New Yorkers, Street Lab strives to create a more inclusive and enriching environment for all.
