DESIGN AND ARCHITECTURE FOR KIDS
After-School Class
Embark on a journey of architectural discovery with our engaging and playful hands-on classes designed for kids aged 7 to 12!
Every week, young architects explore the fascinating worlds of famous architects, design concepts, and captivating buildings, unleashing their creativity through the creation of 2D drawings and 3D models. We transform learning into an exciting adventure, encouraging children to observe and appreciate their built and natural surroundings. As they delve into fresh concepts, their vocabulary blossoms, and their fine motor skills thrive through the exciting process of drawing and model-making – just like real architects in the making!

“My daughter is attending a week long winter camp. She was jumping and yelling ‘It’s so much fun!’ after day 1, and after day 2 she brought home a project that has a lot of design details. We’re looking forward to the rest of the camp and we’ll definitely sign up again.”
