Join us April 1 at 6pm ET for our next ACSA webinar: “Culturally Responsive Teaching: Providing an Equitable Architectural Education” featuring ACSA Director of Research and Information Kendall Nicholson @kan8g.

As educators, our mission is to ensure that every student can succeed. As a discipline, architecture often prioritizes the “product,” and the “place” before considering the “people”. This lecture will share the theoretical framework originally established by Gloria Ladson-Billings in her efforts to reach students from diverse backgrounds, and the tangible strategies necessary for validating students’ voices. By developing a socio-political consciousness, Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT) empowers faculty to engage students in ways that architects should engage the public.

Next Friday evening, we welcome Johnpaul Jones, the recipient of the Tau Sigma Delta Honor Society in Architecture and Allie’s Arts Gold Medal.

Johnpaul Jones has a distinguished 52-year career as an architect and founding partner of Jones & Jones. Earning his Bachelor of Architecture from the University of Oregon in 1967, his design philosophy emerged from his Choctaw-Cherokee ancestors, which connects his work to the natural world, animal world, spirit world, and human world.
Mr. Jones’ designs have won widespread acclaim for their reverence for the earth, for paying deep respect to regional Indigenous architectural traditions and native landscapes, and for heightening understanding of Indigenous People and their diverse Native cultures of America. Johnpaul has led the design of numerous cultural centers and museums with tribes spanning the North American continent, culminating in his 12-year engagement as overall lead design consultant for the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian on the Mall in Washington, D.C. #johnpauljones #ACSA109 #keynotespeaker #109closingkeynote #tausigmadelta
