A Transformative Pitch: "Shipping" Institutions

That's definitely a good idea! A Schomburg model in Philadelphia would be amazing--though I'm not exactly sure of their institutional history. Would that be more of a collaboration or an offshoot of the Free Library, then?

For some clarification, rather than the creation of a new organization, I'm speculating here about regularly scheduled joint programming that would highlight both institutions and jumpstart their community engagement ( for the Blockson in particular).

Yes, the idea is to absolutely NOT create a new organization but build on strengths of existing ones in such a way that new excitement and momentum is created.
