Join us for theater and conversation in living rooms across Metro Atlanta in partnership with Partners for home and mayor andre dickens!
How to Make a Home follows Antonio, a single father, as he navigates Atlanta’s Continuum of Care system to secure stable housing for himself and his 8-year-old daughter. Antonio contends with frustrations and daily life stressors, striving to maintain hope while providing for his child. Through his story, the play offers an emotional insight into the realities of homelessness and highlights available services for those in need.
