Join Perfect City, headed by Lewis Center faculty and former Princeton Arts Fellow Aaron Landsman, on Zoom this summer! We want to build community knowledge with you and talk about how we can change the city together.

Perfect City is a 20-year art and activism working group based at Abrons Arts Center on the Lower East Side. Our focus is on gentrification; we believe young people who grow up in NYC deserve more of a voice in making the city work for everyone. Come learn with us.
