Underlying Program Goals:
// lead students in HANDS-ON construction combined with a design studio education in order to discover new intersections between design and fabrication.
// foster a COLLABORATIVE studio environment such that students engage more fully in a dialogue with their peers, practitioners, context and communities.
// implement architecture, design and the making of space to catalyze POSITIVE SOCIAL CHANGE and stewardship of our built environment.

This time, like all other times, is a very good one, if we know what to do with it."
Ralph Waldo Emerson

free & open to the public during normal hours, and a 75% chance that there's a giant bucket of candy and a friendly face named 'bob' at the front door, welcoming you in!

Weather effects
Up until this point, the weather has been sunny and dry. The storm on the way actually highlighted the dynamic qualities of the canopies' material and structure. In the rain today, the fabric is holding up quite well, and the blast of color on a gray day really stands out!
CANOPIES up until Monday 9/14
