Young Architects Program
Children and teens can be surprisingly creative designers and budding builders. The light-hearted Young Architects Program inspires children and teens to explore the built environment and learn about existing and historical structures and buildings. The Program is designed and delivered with an integrative approach that crosses over math, science and art. Students engage in hands-on activities to understand principles of architecture such as design, order, balance, form, function, aesthetics and sustainability, as well as improve visual literacy and verbal vocabulary. Students experience with fun-filled model-making and elementary drawings of floor plans, buildings and structures. They are motivated to look at nature for amazing creative clues and design solutions for human habitat.
