Founded and led by Purcell Carson, THE TRENTON PROJECT is a workshop for community research, storytelling, and art. We craft multi-disciplinary creative work, listening closely to how individuals experience the post-industrial American city. We investigate structural inequality to support social reckoning. We cross borders to examine international migration. We show up to for local, face-to-face, community building. Alison Isenberg joined The Trenton Project in 2016, deepening our historical scholarship and broadening our role in today's public conversations. We invite you to attend a screening, join a working group, learn more about us, watch some films, and share your thoughts.

VOICES OF TRENTON
At THE TRENTON PROJECT, our goal is to research, explore, and reflect the stories of Trentonians. Our screenings, like this website, aim to amplify the diverse voices of a city. We’d like to celebrate just a few of our thoughtful and generous collaborators here. And extend thanks to everyone who’s helped us along the way.
There's a lot of history that walks these streets and lives in these homes and we want those stories to be told.

We have to give young folks a place to fit in. Ultimately, they have to make choices, but that has to develop.

You hear people say, "you're a product of your environment." But I'm not a product of my environment, I'm a producer of my environment.
