Architecture, Cinema, & Spatial Storytelling:
The Great Gatsby
Presented by John DeFazio, AIA
3LU's

Join AIA Long Island on Thursday, September 17, for an Architecture in Film screening of The Great Gatsby (1974). Directed by Jack Clayton from a screenplay by Francis Ford Coppola, the film stars Robert Redford as Jay Gatsby and Mia Farrow as Daisy Buchanan, alongside Sam Waterston and Bruce Dern.

The evening opens with an insightful talk by architect John DeFazio, AIA, examining the rich intersection of architecture and cinema. DeFazio will explore how production designers harness spatial environments to shape character, evoke mood, and map social hierarchy. Drawing on The Great Gatsby—a masterpiece renowned for its deliberate spatial storytelling—the discussion will trace the story's visual evolution across its major film adaptations, from the silent 1926 original and the 1949 film noir to the 2000 TV version and Baz Luhrmann’s flashy 2013 spectacle. We will see how Fitzgerald famously used contrasting architectural styles—pitting East Egg’s conservative Georgian mansions against West Egg’s ostentatious French-imitation villas—to critique the American Dream.

Included in your ticket price: Pizza,unlimited popcorn, & unlimited soft drinks.
(The concession will be open for candy sales.)

Design To Lead With Resilience
5 LU/HSW

Architecture is at a pivotal moment. As artificial intelligence, digital transformation, regenerative design, and evolving leadership models redefine practice, architects have an opportunity not only to adapt—but to lead.

The WIA LI Summit 2026 is where those conversations begin. Designed for architects at every career stage, the Summit offers an inspiring day of thoughtful leadership, practical learning, mentorship, and connection. While rooted in Women in Architecture leadership, the program welcomes all professionals committed to advancing design excellence, innovation, and the future of the profession.

You will engage with industry leaders, explore emerging trends, expand your professional network, and build meaningful mentorship relationships that extend well beyond the event. Together we are building a profession that is resilient, inclusive, and prepared for what is next.

Reserve your seat today and join the architects shaping the future of practice.
