March 13th Lecture: Let's Talk Architecture

Let's Talk Architecture: Our first lecture of 2015 was sponsored by Field Paoli Architects. Thanks to Irving Gonzalez, Raul Anziani & Homer Perez for being amazing speakers, sharing with us great stories about their personal experiences in architecture. It was absolutely enriching and inspiring.

LiA's first book donation of 2014! We started with Balboa High School. It was a great success, reaching 60+ students, who got totally excited to learn about architecture and to receive our books! Thank you so much for the volunteers who made this possible.
