New York, NY, March 29, 2011 -- Consolidated Carpet will join Bentley Prince Street and The Salvadori Center to host a 2011 Celebrate Earth event for New York City schoolchildren.

New York City design firms and partners will work with groups of sixth to eighth grade children, identified by The Salvadori Center, a non-profit dedicated to math and science education for children in New York City schools, to design models that emphasize sustainable design and utilize environmentally-friendly materials.

Prizes will be awarded to each child and gifts to adult designers for their participation.
