Tiny WPA’s mission is to grow and support a diverse multigenerational community of civic change agents—Building Heroes—who want to learn how to design-build great things, make a difference in their community(s), and through design lead others in making Philadelphia a better, safer, healthier, more equitable, and prosperous place to live, work and play. The organization is committed to building equity, better designed spaces, and stronger places in Philadelphia by supporting citizen-led design improvements throughout the city as well as creating more opportunities for residents to learn, earn, and lead in the design and making of their city.
As a Making Place Matter partner, Tiny WPA and its Building Heroes led the Exhibition Council in a collaborative design-build process resulting in gallery furniture for Making Place Matter.
