OVERVIEW

AIA Amarillo is working with Amarillo ISD and AMTECH to create an optional yearly design challenge for high school Architecture students to design a solution for a unique prompt each year. AIA architects and design professionals attend 50% and final reviews for the students, which mirrors a collegiate level design review. Winners are selected and present their ideas to community leaders.

GOALS

AIA Amarillo began this outreach program with the intent to create a cooperative relationship between design professionals, educators, and the next generation of architects. AIA Amarillo's goal is to help local students:
1. Forge relationships between students, local Architects, design professionals, and community leaders.
2. Expand student's design language and technical skill through the process of peer review.
3. Build an appreciation of Amarillo and its history through the medium of architectural design.
4. Increase public interest in the field of Architecture, and with the unique character of the Amarillo Area
