This past weekend, SPQ MFA students participated in a QMA-led event at Corona Plaza with the objective of gathering donated materials for fellow New Yorkers in the Rockaways neighborhood of Queens. The event was a resounding success in terms of the amount of community partners that joined the cause and the contributions by community members. But it was also successful as a cultural event that got the cohort of SPQ students more deeply involved in the real life of Corona.  You can learn more about the event on the QMA events website here.

Here are some images of the event and the SPQ students at work in the Plaza:
