Greenport Camera Obscura
Greenport, NY
2023
Greenport Camera Obscura is one of 50 camera obscuras in the world and one of 5 in the United States. It was designed by SHoP Architects in the original plan for Mitchell Park. Not consistently open to the public for over 15 years, I worked with the mayor of Greenport to reopen to the public in June of 2023 with the intention of rallying local interest and volunteers through fundraising, programming, and building a volunteer base.
