Schools are a place to learn and grow. These buildings need spaces to learn, play, eat and explore. Maybe you have a space from your own school you'd like to create or maybe you want to design something totally original. Join us to create your own best learning environment. 

Designed with younger children in mind (ages 5–12 with a chaperone), our family workshops encourage children and their caregivers to explore architecture through hands-on activities each month. 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.
