At MHM, we recognize the importance of being involved in improving our community.  We encourage employees to get involved in organizations they are passionate about by volunteering their time and resources.  One such organization, Center, is at the center of this year’s MHM installation.  The mission of Wesley House is to “empower and serve the Mechanicsville, Lonsdale and Beaumont communities in Knoxville, TN by providing high-quality, affordable, and accessible childcare, social connection in the senior citizen population, and fulfilling the emerging needs of the 37921 zip code”

PARK(ing) Day is an annual event that challenges us to re-imagine the use of downtown street parking to host a variety of uses, including architecture, that engage with the community and challenge our preconceived notions of how public space can be used.  Working with Wesley House Knoxville, our team developed an imaginative play space and arts and crafts activities that will be donated to Wesley House after this year’s event.  The MHM team was delighted to not only support Wesley House, but also to take home the 2021 Award for Best Overall Installation.
