The Center is located at the heart of the city, adjacent to Helms Middle School and the school’s fields and gymnasium. We worked with the City to facilitate a participatory community process that resulted in a design that includes multi-generational community gathering places both indoors and out. The center has a tall, glass fronted lobby incorporating a small café, a computer lab, a youth room, and a large multipurpose community room that opens onto a courtyard.
