NOMAS Showcase, Spring 26
The Spring 2026 NOMAS Showcase is the first Bay Area-wide gathering of student work from the architecture programs at the University of San Francisco, University of California Berkeley, California College of the Arts, and Academy of Art University. Hosted by AIASF and SFNOMA at the Center for Architecture + Design in San Francisco, the exhibition will feature studio projects displayed in a final-crit style setting between students, educators, and practitioners. Industry professionals may offer comments and critique while exploring the diverse pedagogies shaping the next generation of architects.
Youth Design Festival, April 16-19, 2026
AIA San Francisco and the Center for Architecture + Design will present the Youth Design Festival during Architecture Week 2026.
At AIA San Francisco and the Center for Architecture + Design, Architecture Week 2026 is more than a celebration — it's a commitment. This year, we're bringing together programs that meet young people wherever they are in their journey, from curious middle schoolers discovering design for the first time to architecture students in their final year of school.
Whether it's a hands-on creative workshop, a career conversation, or a glimpse into what it means to shape the built environment, our programming is designed to spark interest, build skills, and open doors. From first sketch to graduation day, we're here for every step.
Thank you to our 2026 Architecture Week sponsors, the AIA College of Fellows and the Committee on Architecture for Education.
Supported by AIA National, the program serves as a pilot for a twice-annual youth design series aimed at inspiring the next generation of designers and civic leaders.
