CityVision teaches the principles of city planning and architecture to show students that they can affect the world around them and enact positive change through good design. As students explore neighborhoods, brainstorm solutions, and accomplish projects together, they learn the importance of teamwork, creative problem solving, and advocacy skills.

This Fall, students from Raymond Education Campus and Takoma Education Campus explored how to create active play spaces, and used their research to design several triangle parks near the National Building Museum.

Programs are free. No registration required. Reception to follow presentations. For more information, please contact Teen Programs at teenprograms@nbm.org or 202.272.2448.
