Throughout the summer, NPHM partnered with ACE Mentor Program Chicago, an organization dedicated to providing high school students career opportunities in architecture, construction and engineering, to create an on-site installation at the future home of the museum.

The ACE Summer Design team, comprised of rising high school seniors and professional mentors, unveiled the design project that has been in the works for 8-weeks on Friday August 11th. The design reflects the opening of the museum and extends to the surrounding community a glimpse of what is to come. The installation will stay standing throughout the construction of the museum.

As NPHM works to build a strong community within and for the museum, we understand that often young people are at the forefront of these efforts and issues. This project showcases just that.

You can visit the installation at 1322 W. Taylor St.
