2021 Youth Design Workshops
Youth programs will resume when state guidelines allow for in-person activities. If you are interested in building activities for your child please check out our Design at your Desk series. Additionally, SAF is thrilled to offer four different architecture and design classes this summer through our partnerships with Coyote Central and the Northwest School. Each site has week long, 2 hour programs. Coyote Central programs are virtual and the Northwest School offers live programs. Perfect for students ages 10-15.

Where do buildings come from? The buildings we live, eat, work, and play in often start out in an architect’s mind as a simple form such as a cube or cylinder and evolve from there. Slowly, the architect either carves away from the volume or adds to it, molding a cube into a museum or a cylinder into a high-rise. Come and learn more about how the architectural design process begins and try your own hand at how to sculpt three- dimensional form into what will eventually become a building.
