By combining resources, the process is inclusive of different viewpoints often leading to vibrant and more sustainable results.

+ Bridget Bartolini, Founder, Five Boro Story Project
Bridget Bartolini is a socially engaged artist and educator who uses story-sharing to strengthen community connections.

Under the Five Boro Story Project, she produces community storytelling events that bring New Yorkers together through sharing true stories and art inspired by our neighborhoods. Her creative process involves working with community members, activists, and artists to collaboratively create tributes to the people and places that make up our homes. Bridget holds a Masters in Community Education from Columbia University’s Teachers College, and was a 2013 Create Change Fellow and 2014 Commissioned Artist with The Laundromat Project, and a 2015-16 Creative Community Fellow with National Arts Strategies.
