The Hometown Project

The Hometown Projectexhibition by Jean Chisholm and Janine Merkl is a design show that inspires people to be aware of the potential of their hometowns, invites them to share ideas of what would make their cities better, and facilitates collaboration to help these ideas become a reality from a grassroots level.

The exhibition stimulates thinking about one’s hometown in different ways and the role we play in shaping its future.

Not only does the show celebrate what people already love about their hometowns, it also hopes to inspire change, create projects that promote sustainability, support local economies, and spark new and bigger ideas through collaboration.
