Learn more about architecture and design from the comfort of your own home with this free, live, and online Architecture at Home workshops led by Center for Architecture educators. Each 45-minute session explores an architectural topic through virtual tours, interactive lessons, and discussions, and gets kids started on a design project they can complete on their own with easy-to-find materials. All Architecture at Home events require a device with internet connection and camera. Workshops are FREE and are open to all at-home learners, families, and youth ages 5+. Skyscrapers are incredible structures! Learn about the structural systems that support tall buildings as we look at different examples of skyscrapers from around the world. Discover the forces at work by building a skyscraper’s structural frame using toothpicks, marshmallows or gumdrops, and spaghetti.
