People are encouraged to send in responses and critiques to NotreDameNorthampton@gmail.com. Providing the team with feedback is a critical part of the process, and they welcome reactions and ideas that will continue to influence their design proposals.

Final Presentation Scheduled for December 13, 2008

The Notre Dame team will return to present their final proposals to the public on Saturday, December 13th at 2:30pm at Northampton High School.

Donations Still Accepted

Our fundraising goals are close to being met, however we still need to raise additional funds from the community to fully cover expenses for this effort. Please consider making a contribution to fund the Notre Dame studio's work in Northampton this fall. Contributions are tax deductible and can be sent to A.P.E Ltd, 126 Main Street, Northampton, MA 01060. Please write on the check’s memo line the words “Notre Dame Design.”

Notre Dame team launches website

Thanks to everyone who helped make Design Northampton Week such a success! The presentations were attended by several hundred people, who provided critical feedback and ideas. The Notre Dame studio will be back in Northampton on December 13th, to present the results of their semester-long study. Details will be posted soon. In the mean time, the studio has launched a new website so you can monitor their progress as they continue their work. Find out about the students, see their drawings, and send in your reactions and critiques to NotreDameNorthampton@gmail.com - your comments will be posted on the website as well.
