The theory of change for the Heidelberg Project begins with the belief that all citizens, from all cultures, have the right to grow and flourish in their communities. The HP believes that a community can redevelop and sustain itself, from the inside out, by embracing its diverse cultures and artistic attributes as the essential building blocks for a fulfilling and economically viable way of life. The Heidelberg Project is actively engaged in three main areas. Art and Education: We work to ensure students continue to receive art as a key component in their educational experience by conducting various art education programs at schools throughout Michigan. ACE2, Art, Community and Environmental Education, is our pilot program. Community Development: Our Cultural Village (community development) project begins with the House That Makes Sense Center (HTMS), a headquarters and multi-purpose space, made from found and recycled materials. The HTMS will include an exhibition space, artist-in-residence space, children’s workshop, a library and more. Tourist Destination: The Heidelberg Project receives over 275,000 visitors annually.
