2023 Fall Lecture Series: Andrew Mitchell, B.Arch'20

Do the laureate architects celebrated by the quality-of-life focused Aga Khan Award for Architecture have anything in common? Is there anything we can see in the designers or the architecture that transcends culture and place? Questions held lightly over a year’s long travel research funded by the John Worthington Ames’ Scholarship from Boston Architectural College were immediately subservient to an attitude of listening, exploration, and wonder.

Follow in Andrew Mitchell’s, B.Arch'20, footsteps to experience life in Senegal, Palestine, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Boston, and more.

The John Worthington Ames Scholarship was established in 1955 by Mrs. John Worthington Ames in memory of her husband, a distinguished Boston architect and dedicated supporter of the BAC. The John Worthington Ames Scholarship is to be used to further personal development through an educational experience related to architecture and design in accordance with a stated and accepted program. The Ames Committee defines "educational experience" as one that would develop mental, artistic, or cultural capacities.
