  • About Us

    Prism Design Lab is a design education non-profit organization that works with youth in Durham-Chapel Hill, NC to imagine the beauty they want to see in the world, and to give them a platform from which to project their vision. Prism equips youth from historically marginalized communities with the tools they need to shape their built environment by teaching them design skills and giving them opportunities to practice and cultivate these skills.

    Prism works to achieve these goals through an intensely local program of education and community building. The programs target young people and include a variety of components focused on supporting participants to (i) connect to their creativity and (ii) get exposure to, and to begin to practice, the skills required for the fields of architecture, art and design.
