In celebration of Black History Month, this Saturday event creates a space for students to engage directly with professional architects and explore how design is shaped by culture, community, and lived experience.

The event will conclude with an interactive, team-based design prompt, where students collaborate with professionals in a mini-competition to apply the ideas discussed and experience the design process in action. This event is sponsored by the New York City National Organization of Minority Architects (NOMAS). Food will be provided.
