Program purpose

“Peanut” is a mobile platform to use practices of DIY community-building to create space shaped to serve the needs of hyperlocal communities. To create this space, a 90s city bus, “Peanut,” has been retrofitted to become an accessible and approachable hub for transportation between communities as well as a physical space to support conversations, gatherings and performances taking place directly within the neighborhoods Peanut seeks to serve. Because DIY platforms are built upon grassroots relationship-building, community outreach is as integral to our process as the performance itself. Peanut is an artist and community-driven collaboration that places arts and community in direct contact in order to celebrate the voices of under-resourced communities.
