"What is a city planner?"
"What is an architect?"

Very often, our youth don't gain exposure to the systems of our built environment until they are much older. By introducing youth at a developmental phase that emphasizes interests, hobbies, and talents, we begin a pipeline into fulfilling careers in design.

Support the development of CoLab Xplore.

Make the vision of the Youth CoLab a reality by providing financial and in-kind support for CoLab Xplore. Any amount supports our mission of creating a pipeline for youth to enter design fields that make a difference.
