Programs described in its return (1)
- $51,845 spent. This past summer, Hatch successfully completed several workshops in the community. Hatch returned to the Northwest Library for design-build summer programming for both K-6th graders and teenagers. The K-6th program was one week where students completed several hands-on design-build activities. The final project was constructing bird feeders from start to finish. Students chose a design, assembled the materials, and painted the bird feeder. The teen design-build workshop was a two week workshop in which the students designed and created several items to benefit the NW library. This includes ring toss games, cornhole boards, chess/checkers board, mobile book carts for the librarians, and a double sided mobile white board. The teen workshop concluded with a field trip to Frank Lloyd Wright's Wescott House. Additionally, Hatch partnered with the City of Dayton Recreation Centers, Abundant Life Church's summer programming, the Wescott Center, and the Scholars of H.O.P.E. after school program at Fairview elementary. Hatch provided a variety of hands-on design-build activities for students to engage in and utilize their creativity while learning about architecture. Survey data was collected from all programs to assist in strategic development going forward. Hatch also did a couple activities during the school year including two drop-in sessions with the Equity Center's after school program at Roosevelt Elementary School. Hatch led design workshops for high school students participating in AIA Dayton's student design competition. Stivers High School was the host with weekly sessions for six weeks, with the highest attendance of the past few years-about six students per session.
