Book Drive to Inspire Austin Youth


Please join AIA Austin’s “Latinos in Architecture” for the first annual "From an Architect's Bookshelf"

This book donation drive/library development program will provide Austin area High Schools with books that are essential for the teaching and research of Architecture. Additionally, your books will provide motivation to a young student to stay in school and pursue a college degree education.

We encourage book donors to write a note of insight and encouragement inside the cover of the book to personalize the gift to the students.  Donations can include new or gently used books and recent magazines about architecture, interior design, art, construction.

Book donations are being accepted by designated bookshelf leaders at various design offices around Austin. You can also drop off books at the Austin Center for Architecture (801 W 12th St.) between July 11th and August 19th

AIA Austin is proud to join “Latinos in Architecture” from AIA Dallas and AIA San Diego in this national endeavor and invites you to view the following video showcasing the fruits of such wonderful effort…. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9kcWMeFmxk

Let's get involved.....Let's make a difference!
