Seattle's waterfront has been undergoing a transformation, with a new aquarium and places for pedestrians. Before all the construction, architects, planners and engineers considered ideas for how best to use the space. If you had been on the planning committee, what would you have included in the new waterfront? Join us to construct your own unique design for Seattle's iconic waterfront. 

Designed with younger children in mind (aged 5-12 with a chaperone), our family workshops encourage children and their caregivers to explore architecture through hands-on activities. Workshops begin with an exploration of exciting examples of architecture and activities that highlight the design process. Then, the kids are off—designing and building their own structures in a whirlwind two-hour workshop that culminates in a group presentation. 

Parents/guardians must reserve adult chaperone tickets in addition to purchasing tickets for their children. If you encounter any difficulties reserving both types of ticket, please email info@seattlearchitecture.org for assistance.

We offer no-questions-asked scholarships for all SAF Family Workshops. Email info@seattlearchitecture.org to inquire.
