Description:

The Potomac Valley Architecture Foundation offers a free screening of the documentary ?IF YOU BUILD IT? open to all who are interested in the transformative power of design.

"IF YOU BUILD IT" follows designer-activists Emily Pilloton and Matthew Miller to rural Bertie County, the poorest in North Carolina, where they work with local high school students to help transform both their community and their lives. Pilloton and Miller lead their students through a year-long, full-scale design / build project resulting in a stunning community farmers market that does much more than just teach basic construction skills: it shows ten teenagers the power of design-thinking to re-invent not just their town but their own sense of what?s possible.

FREE but please reserve your space online.
