Nomadic College Design Headquarters

Supported by grant of $5,500 on August 12, 2011 through the Seed Award program

The Nomadic College Design Headquarters from The Saxifrage School will expand the organization’s work envisioning an affordable new college in Pittsburgh by setting up roaming headquarters in the three neighborhoods they are assessing as potential campuses (Millvale, Lower Northside, and the East End). They will set up shop in a donated, vacant space which will serve multiple purposes. The Headquarters will be part office, part public art, and part classroom. In accordance with the school’s philosophy of productive inquiry, there will be a balance of making things and considering ideas.
