Processing Community Day NYC

2019 - 2020

Processing Community Day is a non-profit, community conference, consisting of activists, artists, designers, teachers, programmers and students. Processing Community Day is a day to celebrate art, code, and diversity. A focus of this project is to make learning how to program and make creative work with code accessible to diverse communities, especially those who might not otherwise have access to these tools and resources. We were the largest of dozens of locations around the world holding a local Processing Community Day event in 2019 and 2020.
