Founded in 1983, Broadway Housing Communities (BHC) is committed to addressing the challenges of poverty and homelessness for adults, children, families and communities in Upper Manhattan. BHC has developed seven buildings that provide housing and other services for people living in deep poverty; operates an award-winning early childhood center; and provides opportunities for tenants and the wider community to engage with the cultural arts. The recently completed Sugar Hill Project, located in the Sugar Hill National Historic District, includes 124 units of permanent, affordable housing; an early childhood center; the Sugar Hill Children’s Museum of Art & Storytelling (SHCMAS); and other community facilities.
Open since October 2015, Sugar Hill Children’s Museum of Art & Storytelling is the cultural capstone of BHC’s Sugar Hill development at the inter-section of the African-American community of Harlem and the Latino community of Washington Heights. SHCMAS provides children with opportunities to discover, engage with and appreciate important works of art as they strengthen their own cognitive and creative development. Museum programs developed for three- to eight-year-olds and their families feature exhibitions ranging from single-artist presentations to thematic surveys and commissioned artist projects; intensive hands-on art education programs; storytelling series; and other family programs.
