Opening July 28, 2012
Investigating Where We Live (IWWL) is a four week summer program at the National Building Museum for teens from the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. Participants use digital cameras, creative writing, interviews, and their own observations to explore, document, and interpret the built environment in D.C. neighborhoods. This year’s exhibit explores Anacostia, a historically rich and developing neighborhood east of the Anacostia River. After collecting and sorting through their images, writing, art, and interviews, the teens planned, curated, and installed an exhibit of their perspective on Anacostia.
