Untaped Fellowship

Led by The Design Trust for Public Space, City Parks Foundation and the Trust for Public Land, and in partnership with community-based organizations in all five boroughs, Untaped will award four Design Trust Fellowships in Legal Policy, User Experience, Public Space Management, and Economic Policy. All four fellows will team-up with the Design Trust to tackle long-standing policy problems faced by public space users.

Untaped is a coalition-based project that looks at the regulatory barriers that are severely limiting New York organizations’ ability to activate the public realm and unlock community-based resources for all New Yorkers. The project will make the legal, economic, and social case for reducing these barriers with precise and well-researched model policies and recommendations. It will be led by the Design Trust for Public Space, in partnership with enterprise partners City Parks Foundation and the Trust for Public Land; and community-based partners Uptown Grand Central, the Brownsville Community Justice Center, the Point CDC, Queensboro Dance Festival, Alice Austen House, four Project Fellows, and an expansive network of public space producers.
