Project snapshot

Little Friends Community Connect aims to support immigrant families in accessing cultural activities throughout the city by providing them with a two-way subway or bus pass to accompany their Cool Culture pass. This initiative seeks to bridge the gap and make cultural institutions more accessible for marginalized communities, inspiring activism and social change through art and culture. By removing the financial barrier of transportation costs, families will have the opportunity to explore museums and other attractions, fostering connections between home and school as children share their experiences with classmates.
