The Mount Mary University Interior Architecture & Design Department is having senior presentations on Thursday, May 11th from 10:30 - 4:00 and Friday, May 12th from 9:45 - 2:30. All presentations will take place at Mount Mary University, in Stiemke Hall located in Notre Dame Hall. https://mtmary.edu/campuslife/ After each student presentation, guests will be able to explore the project in virtual reality. Presentations last between 20-30 minutes with time for Q&A and VR exploration after. See attached file for presentation topics and schedule. Each project is a powerful example of how design is more than just picking colors; instead, it shows how design transforms spaces to make the world a better place. |
Each spring, students prepare a portfolio show to exhibit their breadth of work from the Architectural Drafting / Construction Technology, Interior Design, and NEW this year, Kitchen + Bath programs. We welcome industry professionals, family & friends to join us for an amazing show and reception on May 16 at the Pewaukee campus. We can't wait for you to see what these hard-working students have accomplished over the course of their programs! |

Monona Terrace is seeking architects, planners and landscape architects, interior designers, or an adult interested in design to assist with a school program on Wednesday, June 7, 11:30-12:45. A group of 85 4th graders from the Fox Point area will be doing a tabletop activity centered on envisioning a new Monona shoreline park.
After a brief orientation by the group organizer, the students will individually or in pairs build one element for the park out of simple materials. They can choose from a list or come up with their own. A line drawing representing the Monona lakeshore will be at each table of 8 and students will place their element on the drawing.
Facilitators will assist in:
· Helping students decide what element of the shoreline they would like to build and support construction. Just a few examples: boathouse, amphitheater, boardwalk
· Bringing more construction materials and supplies to the tables as necessary.
· Using a few prompts (provided by the organizers) to the kids as they consider where to place their constructions.
We are asking volunteers to arrive at 11am for a debriefing before the group arrives. Please contact Heather Sabin at [email protected] if you’re interested in participating.
