#thisisstclair

Upcycle St. Clair is a project of St. Clair Superior CDC funded by the national ArtPlace funding collaboration. Artplace funds creative placemaking and they believed in our vision to build a new neighborhood along St. Clair Avenue (in the East 60s) using upcyling as the artistic intervention. There’s something special about this area and its longtime community anchors, historic buildings and easy accessibility to the East and West. It was once a thriving spine of the neighborhood and we believe in reclaiming its potential. Our work is creating vibrancy, engaging residents, supporting existing merchants, attracting new ones, creating more colorful streets, teaching upcycling, activating empty spaces, and building community. We’re calling it the St. Clair neighborhood and we invite you to join us as we work to transform it. #thisisstclair
