Pratt Gives Back

Pratt's tradition of giving back began with Charles Pratt, who not only founded the Institute but also established Brooklyn's first public library on its campus.  Today, as a leading art, design, and architecture school focused on the practical application of creative work and creativity itself, Pratt builds on this legacy by playing an increasingly active and influential role in addressing some of society's most pressing challenges.  Whether producing graduates who help New York retain its preeminent position in the art and design industries, fostering sustainability and enhanced quality of life, or providing free tutoring and arts education programs to children and families, Pratt gives back - every day.
