Instructor: David Bender - Associate Director, Center for Architecture
Each workshop is limited to 24 children. These workshops are appropriate for children in grades 2-6. If you have children under 6 years old, they can enjoy some unstructured build time with our hands-on maker stations.
Before the workshop, visit our FREE exhibition, Constructing Play: Classic Building Toys! This vibrant exhibition chronicles the development of classic children's building toys over the past 150 years. These toys have been instrumental in fostering creative play and are critical to the education of our children. Travel back in time to see how various types of toys have developed and advanced with technology to become toys as we know them today!
