Pittsburgh ALN organizations have offered high school architectural education for decades, helping students navigate different programs and prepare for their future.

Our partners host learning opportunities for all ages from K-12, both during the school year and the summer. Many programs have free or low cost options, and they range from very casual introductions to the field to intensive programs that prepare students for professional Architecture programs at the university level.
