The Street Teams project concluded in 2024. This page remains available so you can learn more about the work and impact of the initiative.

Street Teams

Street Teams are student-run, creative collaborations within ComArtSci. Interdisciplinary groups of students partner with nonprofit organizations and assist them with media projects. They have real-world learning opportunities while giving back to the community.
