Unlike the D, N, & R Trains that transport passengers from nearby Manhattan through and around our beautiful global neighborhood, it is the U-Train that will bring us all together to crash through walls of hatred, misogyny, and bigotry. "The Sunset Park Railroad" is an ongoing community-building project presented by Mena Mountain Productions, a faith-based for-profit production company.
ALL ABOARD!
"I would like to invite you to become an engineer of peace, love, and unity. The vision of this community building project is to crash through walls of hatred, misogyny and bigotry by celebrating our elders, immigrants, and our humanity." Harry Mena - your Co/Engineer and artistic director.
MISSION:
The Sunset Park Railroad is a continuing multi-arts/educational community-building project, a movement that will provide the images that are sorely missing from mainstream media of good people from around the world coming together for the benefit of everyone. In collaborations with houses of worship (churches, mosques, temples), senior centers, and community-based organizations, we deliver the arts and sciences while making a massive collection of memories that will be enjoyed for generations to come. Consider being one of our advertisers and associate yourself with wholesome and original programming that is all about inclusion! ALL ABOARD!
The Sunset Park Railroad aims to unite all of our partners working daily to reach solutions to the problems that typically afflict poor and working-class immigrant communities. These impacts include a shortage of affordable housing that leaves little hope for residents wishing to age in place, overcrowded schools with inadequate resources, police discourse that is of concern to all, high unemployment, health disparities, and racial tensions that lie beneath the surface. It will lead to a transformative experience for all who choose to be involved in creating common ground for the common good, culminating in a massive collection of stories documenting the immigrant experience by those who have lived, learned, worked, and worshiped here.
