Architecture Foundation of Oregon

A member of the Clatsop-Nehalem Confederated Tribes, Todd is using the fellowship to deepen his research on contemporary and traditional west coast Native American structures, art, and the building traditions that inspired them. He will use this research to design and facilitate the creation of a new cultural center, museum, and traditional longhouse on the Clatsop-Nehalem’s reacquainted land. Learn more about Todd’s project.

Why is participating in Architects in Schools important to you?

“Architecture addresses concepts that kids love: art, craft, technology, all in a creative blend of wonder and practicality, physical form and function. This is not adequately taught in Portland Public Schools at the elementary school level, when so many young minds are more than hungry and ready for this stimulation.” Learn more about Architects in Schools
