Good Opens Pop-Up Community Center

by Amanda Gore (PSFK London)

Good DecemberThe lovely people at Good magazine have created their own version of the pop-up phenomenon with Good December; a community center and gallery store that has just arrived on Mulberry St, NY for the run-up to Christmas.

Sponsored by Microsoft’s impressive i’m Initiative, the center is organized around the themes of Media, Environment, Technology, Design, Education, Culture, Business & Money, and Health, and alongside the book exchange, clothing drop-off, free wifi cafe and games such as shuffleboard, visitors can take part in organised events including Etsy’s DIY workshop or visit the health clinic check-in.

Good December opened yesterday and will stay open every day until 23rd, so pop in and spread some festive cheer among your community.
