Arcadia Commons is a volunteer-driven organization in Philadelphia that aims to give community members access to quality open space, the physical, emotional and intellectual enrichment that can come with it, and the experience of community togetherness - aspects of life that we feel are among the natural rights of every human being. We aim to repurpose blighted, vacant, land as a home for a widely

shared program of community gardening, open air markets, skill-building and life-learning workshops on food, health, crafts, affordable home building, community empowerment, and other related topics. Arcadia Commons was founded by five residents of East Kensington who have a unique mixture of talent and experience, including: visual art, music, arts education, design, community organization and activism, urban planning, sustainable building, and real estate sales. A key passion of the group is creating volunteer-based sustainable building projects using recycled and salvaged materials. We have applied for non-profit status and with that we will be launching programs in, and for, East Kensington.
