Architecture Week Recap

During Architecture Week, architects across Texas stepped into classrooms, libraries, and community spaces to introduce students to the world of design through storytelling and hands-on activities.

From building spaghetti towers to creating their own cities, students explored what architecture can be and what they can become.

✨ 50+ architects
🏫 Nearly 50 schools
📈 1,277+ students reached, exceeding our goal by nearly 28%

We’re grateful to every volunteer who helped make this impact possible and inspired the next generation!
