School of Architecture Spring 2025 Lecture Series

In honor of our 70th Anniversary, we’re thrilled to celebrate this milestone with a remarkable lineup of events. Join us for inspiring lectures by Mabel O. Wilson, Walter Hood, and Toshiko Mori, an exhibition highlighting the outstanding work of our Bachelor of Architecture and Master of Architecture students, and much more.
An exhibition space at Pratt Institute’s School of Architecture showcases dozens of architectural models and student projects. The room features high ceilings, red polished floors, and walls lined with detailed drawings, renderings, and photographs labeled by studio course numbers. Tables and shelves display intricate scale models made from various materials, reflecting the creativity and technical skill of undergraduate and graduate architecture students. Bright overhead lighting and natural light from large windows illuminate the space.
