PROJECT COMPLETED, FALL 2007
St. Cornelius Catholic Church: This is a large contemporary church in Chadds Ford, Pa. (in the suburbs of Philadelphia) where nine teachers and 38 students transformed 20,000 square feet of white walls. Thirty-one percent of the students participated in more than one class. Students traveled from Canada, California, Minnesota, and Missouri; with most from the East Coast of the U.S. Class size averaged three to four students. The average student invested $700 US dollars for a class that typically lasted 35 hours in one week. Depending on the subject being taught, some classes were two days, some three and most were four to five days. Class cost ranged from $450 to $1200 with the average fee of $700. Students stayed at local hotels at a discounted rate.

DPAP selects several projects a year at different locations in the U.S.; assembles the best teachers; and invites students to participate in classes. Students work closely with teachers to execute the design plan for the space.
