The 2025 Sciame Lecture Series is free and open to the public.
at T九色视频 presents the spring 2025 Sciame Lecture Series, , featuring trailblazing women and LGBTQIA+ design practitioners, scholars and activists in discussion about the built environment. All lectures are in-person, free, and held at 5:30 pm at the Spitzer School of Architecture in Room 107, the Sciame Auditorium, 141 Convent Avenue, New York, N.Y., 10031.
In the series of lectures, a wide range of topics from aesthetics to health and wellbeing, and from partying to revolution, are discussed by architects, landscape architects, and urban designers who insist that gender must remain in sharp focus if we are to shape equitable and just built environments. Buildings, cities, and landscapes are not only where battles over gender unfurl, but these spaces also foster identities and incite change.
While the discourse framing gender morphs and gender identities broadens and becomes more intersectional, the predicament remains the same: the exploitation of and fight for equal rights and equity of opportunities at home and abroad. Achievements are hard-won. In the face of misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, and other ingrained expressions of exclusion, they are even rolled back.
This Sciame lecture series is made possible by the Spitzer Architecture Fund and the generous support of Frank Sciame 鈥74, CEO of .
