DIVERSE PRACTICE: Symposium

A conversation on Diverse Practice as part of the series, in association with Architecture+Women NZ.

For the symposium five speakers were invited respond and talk to specific questions from the survey about diverse practice. This is from a student perspective - through to established practitioners – which speaks more directly to the challenges of practice experienced by women. The session will be concluded by a panel discussion chaired by Justine Clark.

5.30-6.00 pm - Exhibition Opening at VUW school of architecture.
Celebration with drinks and nibbles

6.00 -8.00pm - Conversation on Diverse Practice

  • If you could share one insight about architecture with a female graduate entering the profession what would it be?
  • What do you think the future of architectural practice is/should be?
  • What do you think women bring to the profession?

Reflecting on these questions, four Wellington woman architects that represent three generations will share their thoughts and work, followed by a panel discussion chaired by Justine Clark.

Speakers:

Sally Ogle, Pamela Bell, Kerstin Thompson, Fiona Christellar
