West Elm teamed up with the TODAY Show & George to the Rescue to give this Boys and Girls Club a glow-up
Makeover alert! This spring, Jenna Bush Hager and George Oliphant collaborated with architecture firm Studio 397 to transform the Teen Room at the Madison Square Boys and Girls Club in Brooklyn. The result? A bright, comfortable and design-forward hangout for the older members to call their own. Read on to find out how we helped the team pull it all together with West Elm furniture and decor.
“This is a place where you can come and be safe and feel good about yourself.”
Tables and stackable chairs create a flexible space to gather, study or play games. A local artist was commissioned to paint the mural along the wall.
“I’m so enamored with the staff here. What they do to keep this place positive and safe—it’s so important.”
—George Oliphant, host of George to the Rescue
