Hello, Harrison Center community and friends! My name is Mallory Kornelis. As the Development and Administrative Assistant, I am the newest staff member at the Harrison Center. I would guess that I am a new face for most people, but some might recognize me from when I was one of the first Harrison Center interns back in 2009.
Much has changed at HC since I was here. The office is no longer the size of a closet and HC has grown both in physical space as well as activity, with interns streaming in and out of the office, doing a multitude of projects from administrative work to stop motion projects. It is exciting to be back in a place that felt like a sort of home to me, but also to see that it has continued to grow and change.

| A Lasting Impact on Martindale-Brightwood |
Thanks to all of you, we met our goal of raising $50,000 by September 14th for the historic Polk building!
Now, the Indiana Housing & Community Development Authority will provide a matching grant of $50,000. With these funds, our mission is to create public art murals with local artists, offer augmented reality features, and hold engaging events to further enrich the Martindale-Brightwood neighborhood.
With your help, we can make Lewis Street and its alley safe and fun through local art. |
