After Hurricane Sandy: creating new social spaces and urban interventions at Rockaway Beach


The Museum of Modern Art is calling on its network of artists, architects and designers to help rebuild Rockaway Beach, which is struggling to recover after being hit by Hurricane Sandy. “We are asking artists, architects, designers and urban planners to present ideas for creating social spaces, new housing models, urban interventions and other ideas related to rebuilding and protecting the shoreline,” says MoMA PS1 director Klaus Biesenbach.

Twenty five selected proposals will be presented publicly in the press, social media and on site in a series of presentations organised by MoMA in its temporary relief and cultural VW Dome 2 in Rockaway Beach during April.
