This October, the SCI-Arc community gathers at Paramount Pictures Studios for Building Forward, an evening that celebrates the creativity, curiosity, and the generosity that has made SCI-Arc a global leader in architectural education and design.

Together, alumni, friends, and supporters will celebrate this year's distinguished honorees while raising scholarship support for the talented students who will shape the future of architecture and design.

Proceeds from the evening will ensure exceptional students have the opportunity to study at SCI-Arc – where they will become one of you, as they challenge convention and shape the built environment for generations to come.
