"Architecture + Education" Student Work Exhibit
Andrew Delmonte, a film student home for summer break helped me to document the exhibition that culminates the Architecture Institute of America’s local chapters project with Buffalo Schools, “Architecture + Education” this year. An exhibit of student works was hosted at CEPA Gallery last weekend, featuring the work of students at Buffalo Academy for Visual and Performing Arts, Hutchinson Technical High School, Discovery School, and Waterfront Elementary.
We had the opportunity to speak with Olivia and Nicholas, students in kindergarten at Discovery School. David Granville was “in the house,” representing the Mayor’s office, along with representatives from the Superintendent of Schools. In this picture, the children help with the ribbon cutting ceremony on Friday night. Each student went home with City of Buffalo pins from the Mayor.

"Architecture + Education" Student Work Exhibit
This Friday, a group of Buffalo Public School students will hold an exhibit of their works created within an Architecture in Education project they've worked on all semester long through a special partnership between architects, teachers, and students.
In the midst of a period that sees many schools in the District being redesigned and rebuilt through the Joint Schools Construction momentum, this project presents a learning opportunity for the children from an otherwise confusing transition process. What better time to bring the architects in to work with students in order to make the chaos of temporary schools and entirely new classrooms a means for creative thinking and learning?
Featuring work created by Buffalo students at Buffalo Academy for Visual and Performing Arts, Hutchinson Technical High School, Discovery School, and Waterfront Elementary. This project is a colla…
