Art Plus Digital Media Equals Urban Renewal
Urban Renewal dating back to the mid 1990s
This documentary profiles three urban pioneers – Charlie Szoradi, Kate Bartoldus, and Steve Stormer. Collectively, they undertake the inspiring transformation of an old run-down Philadelphia church and the adjacent buildings into an arts collaborative. The Hut Documentary is 23 minutes long and won the Black Maria Film Festival Directors Choice Award in 1996. As a young architect, Charlie speaks about his vision to transform the remnants of a disposable society into a meaningful way to improve the lives of his partners, the other artists in the film, and also the extended community.
