This former gym and storage area is now a light-flooded auditorium, library, dining facility and new classroom that supports the school’s mission of fostering community, creativity and lifelong learning for families. The design includes a commercial kitchen, as well as an instructional kitchen for single, young mothers who live on site. Future work includes additional classrooms, offices and a new entry lobby for this Lifelong Learning Center and 180 student school. Photography by Thomas Holdsworth
