TEEN ARCHITECTURE WORKSHOP

Are you a high school student entering grades 10-12 interested in design and buildings? Have you ever dreamed of being an architect? If so, this week-long, immersive architecture workshop may be for you!

The WAM Teen Architecture Workshop is an exciting opportunity to work with professional architects, engineers, and designers from the University of Minnesota at the Weisman Art Museum. Posed as an architectural project, participants will explore, design, and build creative solutions in a professional setting. No specific design experience is necessary, just a keen interest in art, design, engineering, or architecture.

The 2017 workshop will take place July 31 – August 4, from 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
