ARCHITECTS IN THE MAKING – 2010 *AIM Summer Camp
*Architects In Making |
 |
We Need Your Help! Heading into our 4th year providing our kids with a summer of an architectural experience, we have made arrangements with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation Taliesin West of Scottsdale, Arizona to provide a summer educational program for our AIM Summer Camp. We also have extended our program from one to two weeks. The extension of the program in 2010 will require extra funds in supplying the students with materials and field trips that would help the kids enjoy and receive a full experience in architecture.
|
Over 160 kids from the ages of 8 to 14 have benefited from our AIM Summer Camp, which we provide free to all participants, targeting the inner city kids who might have less of an opportunity to be exposed to architecture. As architects we think back to what motivated us or who discovered the talent within us. We have an opportunity to motivate our kids to aspire to a career in architecture. To assists us in this vision we are providing the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation Taliesin West educational program, which will be a wonderful opportunity for the kids to be exposed to one of America’s most prestigious design school.
We need your donations and volunteer assistance to make this 2010 AIM Summer Camp a successful program. They will need supplies; paper, pencils, colors, scales, foam board. You can make a deductible donation by check to AIA Miami or by credit card by calling the AIA Miami Office (305) 448-7488. If you would like to be a sponsor or know of a supplier that could be sponsor, please let us know. Visit our website www.aiamiami.com article on the AIM Summer Camp. |
